Programming note: The quality British drama The Hour is coming to M-Net Series from Tuesday 18 December at 22:30.


You're reading it here first. 

Almost a year and a half ago I told you about the new British drama series The Hour and now I can tell you that the brilliant The Hour is coming to M-Net Series (DStv 114) starting on Tuesday 18 December at 22:30 for six hour long episodes.

After BBC Entertainment passed, I said that The Hour might end up appearing on M-Net or another kind of pay TV channel, but that it won't be soon.


The Hour is a BBC actuality news show set in London in 1956. After a series of murders, an intrepid reporter stumbles upon a conspiracy which involves politicians, the government and stretches into all corridors of power.
