Load shedding is being downgraded to Stage 2 this weekend. That means you’ll have some time to catch up with the latest Netflix releases.

Make sure the power banks are charged and you download all the essential shows and movies to your app. Then you’d be able to get a few hours of TV watching in, even when the lights do go off.

So, what’s on the menu this week? Glad you asked. There are a few superb offerings in the lineup but you’ll need to switch the subtitles on for some of the shows.
