Dark Side of Glory
Dark Side of Glory is a two-part documentary series that tells the stories behind shocking cases of murder and unexplained deaths in the world of sport.
Joseph Ntshongwana played for the Blue Bulls between 1998 and 2001. Ten years later, he was arrested for killing four men with an axe and wounding two others.
In 2021, the world of athletics was shocked to its core when three female athletes were murdered in six months in Kenya, including Agnes Tirop, who was stabbed to death in her home soon after clinching a world record in Germany.
Dark Side of Glory is produced by CMG Productions, who won Best Documentary at the 2023 Broadcast Digital Awards for The Footballer, His Wife and the Crash and were nominated for a 2024 True Crime Award for Football Fraudster.
