[@AsandeMkize]

But Shibes character on the wife was awesome. Loved every second of it😅😅

[@m.l.2483]

One of the most consistent South African actors. I first saw him as Kila on Scandal but wherever he is, Siyabonga Shibe never misses. Thank you King David, this was beautifully done.

[@wandilekingsley2274]

I was privileged to watch this guy for almost 20 years into our screen local and international

[@urbanskhotheni4173]

Lynne Gaines is credited as Scandals Executive Producer from 2010 to 2015..she is the only prominent female producer of the show during that time. According to me..she is the one who did Siyabonga Shibe dirty. And what happened to Welile Nzuza????

[@veronicamakhafula6389]

I feel like I was watching a conversation between 2 brothers/ best friends. Great episode!

[@nellymathibe2069]

Me too David is genuine and loving he connects with his guest for real I like him, he is such a pure soul

[@Fhhdvhfghgfhtrdgrd]

I find it sad that David finds it hard to watch his work. I guess we all do that in our respective careers. However, we need to learn to celebrate ourselves. Tomorrow is not promised to anyone. You’re great at what you do King David!!
