It was launched in 1988 and has since earned credibility amongst South African viewers for its investigation into corruption, consumer issues and current events. The series also has received numerous awards. ==History== Carte Blanche began its broadcast in 1988, anchored by Derek Watts and Ruda Landman. Landman left the show in 2007; the same year Bongani Bingwa became a presenter. In January 2010, two spinoff series, namely ''Carte Blanche Medical'' and ''Carte Blanche Consumer'', were launched.
