It’s been ages since a massive line-up of comedians has hit Durban. But it’s been worth the wait!

East Coast Radio proudly presents The Kings and Queens of Comedy. Ten of South Africa’s top comedians will be bringing the house down at the ICC on 14 February 2014 – and this time they’re packing more of a royal comic punch!

How does having Marc Lottering, Riaad Moosa, Stuart Taylor, Celest Ntuli and Trevor Gumbi on one stage sound to you?

(Darren Maule)

Throw in Breakfast Stack host Darren Maule as MC along with comedic skills from Mark Banks, Muthu Murughan, Conrad Koch, Ndumiso Lindi, and Simmi Areff and what you get is a one-night only comedy royal flush on 14 February!

(Celeste Ntuli)  

Ten big names.

One big night.

Hours of side-splitting comedy.

Film Review: Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom

Film: Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom
Cast: Idris Elba, Naomie Harris, Terry Pheto, Riaad Moosa, Jamie Bartlett
Director: Justin Chadwick
Cinema:  Cine Centre, Suncoast

This week I managed to see the new Mandela movie at the Premiere at Cine Centre.
It's an interesting movie.  Idris Elba (Thor: The Dark World) has a mountain to climb
with this role.  Possibly his biggest role.  He gives us great insight into the character of
Nelson Mandela.

The film features a who's who of South African cinema.  Look out for Jamie Bartlett as Mandela's prison guard.  Naomie Harris does a good job of showing us Winnie Mandela.  Tony Kgoroge plays Walter Sisulu very well indeed.  Riaad Moosa (Material) plays Ahmed Kathrada.

This film takes us on a tour of South African history and there is much detail in this movie.  From the old car licence plates to familiar cars from each time period.

Director Justin Chadwick (Bleak House) gives us a visual feast showing us how Mandela goes on this journey that eventually leads him to becoming the President of South Africa.

Worth a viewing.

Rating 7/10
