As a personal note I would like to mention that these set of questions have appeared in an exam of a TEFL course I am currently doing and I have already submitted these answers (which is why I know only one is wrong - I am happy with 99% on the entire test)... however, I did not get told which one of these was wrong (so, how can I learn?). You will be providing these answers merely to aid me and NOT to answer my exam for me.
Also, I have altered the questions slightly (India to Zimbabwe for example, names and times etcetera) because I have seen that some people have tried to ask this question without attempting to offer their own suggestions and I can guess as to the reason behind that... so, Google won't help those that try to cheat and I would encourage you to be aware of anything suspiciously similar as you would not be helping them help themselves if you gave them the answers so easily.
Thank you in advance!
Grace Matthews.

I'd vote for no. 19 as it isn't an example of the future continuous tense. It's merely the present continuous with a future meaning.
