Nonhle, who has now gone on to join Vuzu and is the global face of Dark & Lovely, set the benchmark high with her spot-on interviewing techniques and ability to get up-close-and - personal with some of the international entertainment biz’s biggest stars.

Just who will live up to that remains to be seen. In episode two of the O-Access Presenter Search on Channel O the Top 24 are finally announced and they include Fikile Mthwalo; Fezeka Zama; Grevon Jacobs; Lusanda Kori; Khanyi Mbau; Lebogang Mzwimbi; and Dineo Moeketsi, to find out the rest, tune in to Channel O on Thursday, 22 July at 21:00. No sooner have their feet touched the ground, then they are all called on to take part in a photo-shoot that sees Nonhle and Cosmopolitan Magazine’s Assistant Fashion Editor, Lilian Osagie, grill each contender on their personal style; appearance; likes; and dislikes.

This is followed by some fascinating role-playing as three actors put the 24 through their paces to see if they can interview different types of celebrities from the flirtatious and obnoxious to the ubiquitous, difficult diva.

After these challenges, it’s left to the judges - Channel O Supervising Producer, Solly Moeng; Nonhle; and Producer, Thomas Gibson - to decide who will make the Top 6 in the search to find a presenter with the suss and skills to take on the next series of the very popular O-Access.

Tune into Channel O on Thursday, 22 July at 21:00 on DStv channel 320.
