The Dingleys
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Dingleys was South Africa's first television soap opera, when the South African Broadcasting Corporation introduced television in 1976. Set in Pietermaritzburg in Natal (now KwaZulu-Natal), its cast was primarily white, and was known for its amateurish acting.
South African audiences were unimpressed by the country's soapie; one wrote into a newspaper to say: 'Five minutes were enough to leave me stunned,' while another remarked 'if this is supposed to reflect everyday life then we must be a nation of morons'.
