Best Telenovela, Best Actor (Bonko Khoza as Mqhele), Best Supporting Actor (Abdul Khoza as Nqoba), Supporting Actress (Zikhona Sodlaka as Mandisa).
Behind The Veil brings all your faves back to revisit the questions that kept The Wife at the top of the Twitter trends list every Thursday for two seasons. The telenovela features never-seen-before footage and back-from-the-dead appearances from the likes of Siyabonga Shibe and Ntando Mncube (the Majola brothers). This is one special the 5am club won't want to miss.
