Diepe Waters S1-2
A new season brimming with intrigue awaits the Swartmarlyne in Diepe Waters. Who will sink and who will swim?
Season 1 of the popular kykNET telenovela won a SAFTA for its editing, and this year it’s up for Most Popular TV Soap or Telenovela (as voted for by the public) as well as Best Directing, Cinematography, and Sound.

In Season 2, Zelda and Gys' war continues; there’s new love on the horizon for Sanet; and everyone is left reeling following a sudden death. Look out for Vinette Ebrahim (Koek) and Eric Bouwer (Spoorloos, Binnelanders) joining the cast this season.
