Kwêla - no CNBC Africa - snags the first live studio sit-down interview with South Africa's Olympic gold swimmer Cameron van der Burgh.

NOT CORRECT ANYMORE! SEE MY UPDATE BELOW.

Kwêla on kykNET (DStv 111) has secured the first live studio sit-down interview with Olympic swimmer Cameron van der Burgh; it will take place in this Wednesday evening's show at 19:30, the Pieter Cilliers production tells me.

Cameron van der Burgh will talk to Coenie de Villiers in studio about winning South Africa's first gold medal at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. 

The South African Olympic swimming team landed back in South Africa in Thursday last week.

UPDATE 11:37 - Kwêla was fast, but not fast enough. The booking wars for guests remain ruthless. I just got today's schedule from CNBC Africa (DStv 410) and Cameron van der Burgh will actually be appearing on the business channel today (Monday) in a live studio sit-down TV interview. This will then be actually the swimmer's first since his return to South Africa.
