Survivor SA – Contestants announced!
It’s starting next week Wed – start placing your bets!!! The secret is out! M-Net has revealed the names of the 16 contestants who will be experiencing hell in paradise in Survivor South Africa: Malaysia. These 16 headstrong Survivors were whisked off to an island in the South China Sea in May this year where they had to do whatever was necessary to endure the harsh elements and outsmart their tribe mates. The current Survivor series was shot over a period of 27 days and starts on M-Net on Wednesday, August 22 at 20:00. There will also be a repeat on M-Net Series on Fridays at 22:00. In episode 1, food and fire are high on the Survivors’ priority list right from the start, but they soon find out that the lack of resources is but one of many problems on their deserted island. The contestants come from different walks of life and these larger than life personalities are bound to clash. Whose torch will be extinguished at tribal council? Will the strongest or weakest Survivors go home first? And what will keep them in the game: physical strength or psychological mind games? Of course, it all depends on the dynamics of the tribe and the only certainty is that no-one is to be trusted.
