It\u2019s confirmed! Arendsvlei extended for another season<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Beatrice Abrahams and the learners of Ho\u00ebrskool Arendsvlei will bring more drama to the small screen in kykNET & kie\u2019s very first Afrikaans telenovela, Arendsvlei, that was recently extended for another season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will Arendsvlei\u2019s favourite villain, Wendy Newman get away with murder, or will she finally be caught for killing David Abrahams?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wendy was still walking freely in the first season, while the Arendsvlei community was left shattered after Beatrice ended up in jail for allegedly murdering her husband, David.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first season explored happiness, sadness, vindictiveness and plans only Wendy could think of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But have Arendsvlei viewers seen it all?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this season, Janice\u2019s brother, Steve Mortlock is released from prison and he turns the Arendsvlei world upside down. David\u2019s long-lost son, Nathan, will also make an appearance, all the while Chantel\u2019s father unexpectedly knocks on their door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Viewers can also expect another murder, engagements, cheating and witness how Wendy goes to new extremes to ruin the Arendsvlei community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jolene Martin (Beatrice), Melanie Du Bois (Rolene), Rehane Abrahams (Wendy), Crystal Donna Roberts (Janice), Sherman Pharo (Thys), Ann Juries (Claudia), Jody Abrahams (Lionel), Celeste Matthews (Gertie), Craig Adriaanse (Wesley), Gerwen Simon (Valdonia) and Roberto Kyle (LeeRoy) are just a few of the actors making a return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And a few household names will also join the Arendsvlei family. Danny Ross will play the role of David\u2019s son, Maurice Carpede will play Chantel\u2019s father and one of South Africa\u2019s gems, Shaleen Surtie-Richards will portray the role of Lionel\u2019s mother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Penguin Films are the producers again and is very excited about the second season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creative producer, Roberta Durrant, says it\u2019s always a pleasure to work on Arendsvlei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith each school calendar year, you get to introduce new characters and storylines. But it\u2019s also challenging to keep the stories exciting and to not become stagnant. It\u2019s a wonderful thing that we can bring new characters in and still keep our core family.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head writer and co-producer, Theltom Masimila, says: \u201cIn the first season of Arendsvlei, we only explored one chapter in each character\u2019s book. In season two, our first group of matriculants graduates from school and heads off to university. We also introduce the class of 2020 and some of our beloved characters are left with more skeletons in the cupboard than we could ever imagine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arendsvlei airs every Monday to Wednesday on kykNET & kie, DStv channel 145 at 8pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
