Take 5 is a daily hour-long youth life skills show commissioned by SABC Education that reached two million young South Africans weekly.

Each episode investigates a different social topic that affects the youth. It features interviews with expert guests, the buzz on the street (vox pops), and a studio audience. Towards the end of an episode, five volunteers go out into the real world to actively engage with the challenge and see what they can achieve. Topics covered in the show include: celebrity culture, Home Affairs and responsible drinking.
