Is there any point in crying over spilled rice?
This week’s episode of Survivor South Africa: Immunity Island (15 July, 19:30 on M-Net) sees the Castaways maneuvering for Merge – even if they’re not 100% certain when it will arrive. An emotional rollercoaster of an episode sees some Castaways fight demons that haunted them at previous challenges, while others receive heart-rending messages from home.
Reasons why you don’t want to miss Episode 7:
- A Castaway resorts to hand-washing individual grains of spilled rice in a bid to right an accident which could have catastrophic consequences.
- An Immunity Island visit delivers a series of surprises that could have major repercussions on the game – if they’re played at the right time.
- One Castaway begs previous tribe mates for salvation at a challenge – will they extend an olive branch?
- A number of secret advantages and handicaps are still in play: Anela has a ‘No Vote’ for his next Tribal Council; Tyson has a second Immunity Idol; Anesu is still in possession of her ‘Tribal Pass’ that allows her to send herself or someone else to camp before the votes are cast and Chappies can jump ship from tribe Vuna to Zamba, if Vuna wins the Tribal Immunity Challenge. Some of these advantages have expiry dates – and it’s up to the Castaways to make the most of them, before time runs out.
Survivor South Africa: Immunity Island was filmed on the Wild Coast in the Eastern Cape, in partnership with the Eastern Cape Development Corporation (ECDC), is produced by Afrokaans and hosted by Nico Panagio. Catch all the action every Thursday at 19:30 on M-Net (DStv Channel 101).
