Oprah's back
2005-04-04 14:11
Cape Town - She's back! Oprah Winfrey, the queen of talk shows, returns to South African television screens after a long absence.
The Oprah Winfrey show starts on Monday at 16:50 on SABC3. The talk show has been scooped up by SABC3 after e.tv decided to ditch it in favour of a popular American soapie in September last year.
Free-to-air channel e.tv has had the broadcasting rights to the show since September 1998 when the station whipped it out from under SABC3 for an unknown fee.
Oprah's show is screened in 107 countries, apart from the United States.
Oprah, 50, routinely appears on lists of Hollywood's most powerful figures and, in 2003, became the first black woman to be included on Forbes magazine's tally of billionaires.
