The Big Debate is returning for a 9th season from Sunday, 10 March at 19:00 and will be broadcast on SABC2, SABC News (DStv 404), SAfm and the SABC News YouTube channel - again with Redi Tlhabi as the moderator of the "town hall style" talk show.
The 8th season of the debate show, from Broad Daylight Films Foundation and executive produced by Ben Cashdan, was also broadcast on SABC2 and SABC News as a live show, including on the SABC's radio station, SAfm, but it's not clear whether episodes will again be done live or are pre-recorded.
Studio guests and invited guests will once again be sitting in the show's well-known five-ringed seating pattern, and some of the The Big Debate topics this season will be centred around South Africa's upcoming national elections taking place on 8 May.
On Wednesday SABC2 was asked for more information about the upcoming season of The Big Debate starting in 3 days. The channel told TVwithThinus it's still working on it.
