Carte Blanche on M-Net is part of a global investigation 'of jaw-dropping scope' that it will reveal on Sunday night at 7pm.

The week's programming note mailer from M-Net about Carte Blanche's upcoming Sunday night episode, that was issued on Thursday, is notable in that M-Net and Carte Blanche can't talk about one of the stories it will feature - a global investigation of "jaw-dropping scope".

On a weekly basis, Carte Blanche gives the media a run-down of its upcoming topics, the producers and its various presenters in the latest episode that will broadcast on M-Net (DStv 101) on Sundays at 19:00.

This week is extremely unusual since Carte Blanche says it can't talk about one of the stories that Sunday's episode will feature.

One of the Carte Blanche investigations sees the Combined Artistic Productions show joining a "global investigation", the nature and subject of which is embargoed.

M-Net and Carte Blanche on Thursday were only willing to say that the information on what this global investigation is about, is embargoed until Saturday 2 October 2021 until "12:30 Washington DC USA time".

The weekly investigative magazine show says that "more than 600 journalists from 117 countries collaborated on a global investigation of jaw-dropping scope. Carte Blanche previews what is set to be the largest journalistic collaboration in the world to date".

The producer of this Carte Blanche insert on Sunday is Latashia Naidoo and Macfarlane Moleli will be the presenter of the insert on Sunday night.
