Make the most of the extra screen time you have while you’re in quarantine
You may be spending more time at home than usual at the moment, and that means extra TV time. There’s plenty of great stuff to keep you entertained (15 seasons of Grey’s Anatomy, anyone?), but look beyond the movies and series to find even more to stream on Showmax.

Stay sporty
There might not be any live sport at the moment, but you can relive some of the great moments in sporting history with a selection of highlights from football, rugby and more. You can even watch Mike Tyson’s Greatest Fights.

Stay in school
