About the Show
7de Laan was a South African television soapie, which ran from 2000 to 2023.
At its height, it was considered one of the most-watched television soapies in the country – with many viewers locally and internationally.
Eventually, the show ended when the company behind the show couldn’t reach an agreement with the SABC (or the actors) – and subsequently, the show was canned.
