MultiChoice adds Zim channel 3Ktv to DStv platform
As part of its ongoing efforts to enhance its customers’ television viewing experience and offer Zimbabweans content that resonates with them, MultiChoice is excited to announce the launch of 3Ktv, a Zimbabwean channel, on DStv.
From Monday (February 28) at 6am, DStv Zimbabwe subscribers will be able to watch 3Ktv on channel 293. The channel will broadcast content which will include local dramas, reality shows, news, sport, educational programmes, documentaries and will spotlight a wide range of Zimbabwean topics and people. Some of the exciting highlights to look out for include:
• Tangled: A local telenovela about the apparently not so perfect lives of two best friends.
• I Can Act: A reality talent show for aspiring actors
• Mawombera: This is a drama series of a poor family in the rural areas with two kids.
• Zim’ Best Barber: Zim’s best barber is a reality game show in which 16 barbers compete for a prize worth of start-up barbershop equipment, through completing fun tasks and a process of elimination.
• Zim Uncovered: A travelogue (tour) of Zimbabwe’s cities, towns, growth points and suburbs bringing out the historical backgrounds, cultures of the people who live there as well as how certain places became popular.
• Bachi Committee: A talk show programme focusing on issues that affect men in today’s society and the changing roles due to globalisation. It’s an all men’s talk show. 3Ktv general manager Emmanuel Nyamayedenga, said the channel aims to be the most followed, trusted and innovative station in Zimbabwe. MultiChoice Zimbabwe general manager Norman Raisbeck said, “As Africa’s leading entertainment platform and most loved storyteller, we continuously seek opportunities to provide local and inspired content to Zimbabwean audiences. Our goal with this channel is to enhance the customer’s viewing experience even more, and at great value.”
3Ktv will be broadcasting 24 hours a day, seven days a week, from its new studios based in Harare. It will be available to viewers on all DStv bouquets, from Premium through to Lite. For more information visit www.dstv.com.
