The Big Picture coming to e.tv from October, as Nicky Greenwall reworks The Showbiz Report to now just focus on movies.


Nicky Greenwall, pregnant with her second child, is reheating her first solo TV venture, the longrunning The Showbiz Report on e.tv in a new guise entitled The Big Picture which will start on e.tv on Monday 7 October at 20:30.

As TV with Thinus reported last month, Nicky Greenwall's celeb studio talker ScreenTime with Nicky Greenwall produced by Greenwall Productions has been renewed for a third season set to start in January 2014 on e.tv. The new season is, as reported, being done from a new studio in Woodstock, Cape Town.

As TV with Thinus reported last month, Nicky Greenwall's celebrity profile show The Close-Up will start its third season on e.tv on 8 July at 20:30 on e.tv, and is also produced by Greenwall Productions.

TV with Thinus broke the news in May 2012 that The Showbiz Report on e.tv was over. e.tv apparently lied in May 2012 when the free-to-air commercial channel said that The Showbiz Report will be back

A few months later in August 2012 Nicky Greenwall revealed in an episode of The Close-Up about herself revealed why she decided to end The Showbiz Report.

The Big Picture which will start in October will be a lot like The Showbiz Report but will have its emphasis on movies and the film industry. The Big Picture will profile movie stars, directors and celebrities from the world of films, look at upcoming big screen releases and bring viewers general movie news and updates.

There's been no official announcement from e.tv about The Big Picture.
