What we know about The Estate Season 3
We have lift-off on a premiere date for Season 3 of The Estate with news on what to expect.
We were concerned it would never return – you know the SABC mos – but our worries were unfounded because it’s back on Monday 18 July, in its usual timeslot at 19h00. Fingers crossed of course!
The season picks up after Muzi Phakathwayo was believed to be dead at the end of Season 2 and it doesn’t seem as if he’s coming back because Sdumo Mtshali, who played him, isn’t credited in the returning cast list in the SABC’s press release.
But that could be a red herring to throw us off and he is actually returning so we can’t say for sure.
