Pay-TV broadcaster M-Net’s flagship location-based soapie, The Wild, celebrated its first anniversary at an intimate function held on set in Heidelberg, outside Johannesburg, on 3 May.
Invited guests were treated to fine cuisine and an elaborate tour of the extensive set led by the show’s cast and production team.
At the ceremony M-Net commissioning editor Anne Davis revealed The Wild’s new title sequence, which premieres on Monday, 21 May. According to Davis, the new title sequence is meant to complement the essence of this ground breaking soap opera.
Said Davis: “The new title sequence reflects The Wild’s robust and epic proportions.’
The award winning daily, which premiered on South African screens on April 4 2011, is set against the backdrop of a beautiful South African game reserve and focuses on three families who live on it.
The Wild is shot on HD and boasts a host of established actors such as Ian Roberts and celebrity couple, Connie and Shona Ferguson.
