Marc Lewis: I love the look of the channel. It's like nothing that’s currently on South African television. The stories we tell, the angles we cover, it is unique and offers a breath of fresh air to the industry.
Marc Lewis: My role is twofold. During the day I serve as the Sports Editor. It is my job to attend diary meetings, set up stories for the day, ensure my team members cover the required stories and attend their respective events. Then in the evening, I am an anchor on Sports@Prime from 18:00 to 21:00. I deliver the latest, freshest sport stories to our viewers from across the continent.
Marc Lewis: I have been in the media industry for almost 17 years now. I have covered some of the biggest events in the world. The London Olympics and FIFA World Cup in Brazil in 2014 certainly stand out. To be at the Olympic Stadium and Maracana Stadium on those closing nights, is something I will forever remember.
Marc Lewis: Johannesburg.
Marc Lewis: Hard work. My late father came to South Africa as a teenager looking to start his life. He worked incredibly hard his entire life to give our family the best possible upbringing. His work ethic inspires me every day.
Marc Lewis: I’m currently reading Trackers by Deon Meyer. He is outstanding. Watching Harrow, the detective series featuring Ioan Gruffudd. And I am currently listening to a podcast called Exotic Joe.
Marc Lewis: If people don’t know it’s because I don’t want them to know.
Marc Lewis: To visit Lisbon on New Year's Eve and experience their fireworks display. It is one of the most impressive in the world.
