    Are there any penguins at the South Pole?

    World Cup South Africa 2010: a player from one country left South Africa just before the tournament started (he was on their squad list of 23 players), which reduced the squad to 22 players. FIFA officially santioned a replacement, allowing the country to boost their squad back to 23 players. Who's the player, and wh was his replacement?

    I'm looking for a show I used to watch on SABC1's YOTv in South Africa when I was younger, called Princess Sherizon (at least I think that's what it was called. "Sherizon" could also be spelled wrong.) It was about a princess called Sherizon (she used to wear blue, I remember that), and she had a friend who was a genie and could transform into anything. This is about as much as I can remember, I'm afraid. I'm not sure whether it was a show made in South Africa or internationally, but Google searches yield nothing. I'm hoping someone can help me?
