Tackle the week ahead with these awesome reality show inspirations

The queen of decadent culinary indulgence, Nigella Lawson, believes that cooking is more than just a necessary act. “Food is what we feed our souls on, even when we’re only feeding our bodies,” says Lawson, who returns in Nigella: Eat, Cook, Repeat on BBC Lifestyle (DStv channel 174). Welcome to her kitchen where she sets the stage for family life where eating brings people together for memorable moments. For fast, delicious and healthy meals, Donal’s Super Food in Minutes will have the whole family enjoying mealtimes again.

Need a change of pace? Considering a move to decadent Europe? Then get the inspiration you need with a new season of Mediterranean Life on HGTV (DStv channel 177). Watch US couples explore their options in stunning coastal hamlets and decide if they have the budget to live the life of their dreams abroad.

These disasters are so horrible you won’t be able to look away. Close Calls on Camera on CBS Reality (DStv channel 132) captures insane events that can only be believed because the evidence is captured on tape. Filthy House SOS on Lifetime (DStv channel 131) has two seasons chock-full of dirty and disastrous homes across Britain that might be better off burned to the ground.

Renovations take their toll on the polygamous Brown family in Sister Wives on TLC (DStv channel 135). Luckily for The Home Team, their years of experience make new and budget-friendly changes easy and exciting – only on The Home Channel (DStv channel 176).

Better put the kettle on and make some tea... CBS Presents Oprah with Meghan and Harry will replay on Saturday, 13 March, on M-Net (DStv channel 101) at 16:00. In case you missed it – or simply need to re-watch it – this interview is considered a turning point in the British monarchy.

If you’re looking for a bit of adrenaline – then you’re in luck! 12-13 March is Supersports Open Weekend only on the DStv app. Make sure to download now and get ready for the best in sports entertainment.

We’ll also get some me-time with the first lady of cooking as she opens up about her past, all while giving us a delicious glimpse into some of her favourite dishes that will become yours too.
