BREAKING. Tracy Going returns to South African television, anchors Live on 3 with Masechaba Mtolo as a new week-long Madiba talk show.


Tracy Going, the former Morning Live co-anchor on SABC2, returned to television and the SABC on Monday afternoon, co-anchoring the new limited-run weekday talk show Live on 3 at 15:00 on SABC3 with Masechaba Mtolo.

The hour long Live on 3 will run from Monday until Saturday on SABC3 with new episodes daily, and late night repeats.

Neither the SABC, SABC News (which is the division under which the programme falls), nor SABC3 which broadcast Live on 3 from today, issued or released any formation regarding the show, anchors or content.


Live on 3 utilises the exact same set being used by SABC News for SABC1's new limited-run talk show, Mandela: The World That Made Him.

Like Mandela: The World That Made Him, Live on 3 will look and discuss Nelson Mandela's impact and legacy and talk about various aspects and facets regarding his life.

"We knew that this day would come, and now that moment is here. It is difficult. It is painful to accept what happened. And we are a country in mourning," said Tracy Going on Monday afternoon.

Masechaba Mtolo is co-incidentally also a former Morning Live-er where she was a presenter, and also appeared on SABC3's Isidingo soap as a newspaper editor character - her first TV acting job.
