Bike-Jacking
Mountain biking is a popular participation sport in South Africa and a top-of-the-range bicycle can cost as much as a small car. So perhaps it isn't surprising that hijacking of cyclists has increased - particularly in Gauteng. But who is responsible for these often savage attacks and what can be done to stop them? Carte Blanche took to the tracks to find out.

Sheffield Shipwreck
South Africa has one of the most treacherous coastlines in the world and last week saw yet another shipwreck, this time off Sheffield Beach in KZN. While it may have become a tourist attraction, it’s a headache for authorities. Carte Blanche braved the elements.

Claerhout
Belgian Frans Claerhout came to South Africa in the 1940s as a Catholic missionary and later took up sketching and painting. His expressionist works, which showed Flemish influence combined with the landscapes and colours of the Free State, were exhibited worldwide. Father Claerhout died in 2006, but since then the market has been flooded with forgeries. Carte Blanche finds out who’s faking it.

Richard Mason
At the tender age of 19, Richard Mason catapulted to fame and became Britain’s most 'hyped' young novelist, hailed as the new Martin Amis. But he soon learnt that you’re only as good as your last book and that it would take more than writing to find himself. He’s since set up the Kay Mason Foundation, in memory of his sister, and he’s ploughing back into the country of his birth. Carte Blanche caught up with him in Cape Town.
