For the nostalgia

The Riviera

Season 1 Wednesdays SABC2 (*192) 19:30

Every Wednesday night a phone belonging to The Riviera (2020) creator and narrator – actress, writer and comedian Quanita Adams – blows up with messages. “My family love it. There are WhatsApps, there are voice notes, there are little videos of people in hysterics,” she says. “There are some really specific references that my family love when they see it playing out in the episodes. They recognise things that my parents would say to each other, or little references to specific people. I recently got a message from the sister of someone who was in my class when I was at school. She is currently in the UK and she recognised the name of the woman who used to pick kids up in our area and then drive them to school 30 minutes away! That blew me away, from half a world away”
