With Jeannie D and Janez Vermeiren having left on their trip around the world with Top Travel, and Nico Panagio kicking off a stint as host of M-Net's Celebrity Survivor South Africa, Tswelopele Productions have been on the lookout for two new presenters to add to the 'Top Billing' team.
They've found one of them — FHM's Sexiest Woman in the World for 2009, Lyndall Jarvis.
Lyndall has featured in international commercials, music videos and advertisements as part of her successful modelling career.
A character in the 2008 game Metal Gear Solid 4 — Laughing Octopus — was modelled on her.
Her reaction — "I couldn't believe it when they phoned me to tell me the good news! I'm absolutely thrilled. It's a once in a life time opportunity and I can't wait to get started!"
Says 'Top Billing' Executive Producer, Patience Stevens: "It's not easy finding a presenter who has all the right attributes to appeal to our viewers."
Commenting on Nico Panagio's temporary departure, SABC3's Mathe Mosito-Okaba said: "We are so pleased Nico has got this job due to the experience and exposure he has gained on SABC3 and 'Top Billing', and wish him much success with this new project."
According to the Top Billing producers Lyndall will be joined by a male presenter soon. Extensive auditions will be carried out countrywide to find the ideal candidate, who will fill in for Nico while he is away.
