‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ recap and review of the final season

With the return of ‘The Handmaids Tale’ this April and as it concludes with its sixth season, we took this opportunity to look back at the first five seasons and the origin story of this hugely successful, influential and critically acclaimed series and highlight the queer characters and storylines throughout its time on our small screens.  We were also fortunate to have access to advance episodes of season six and while we made sure to give away no spoilers, we do unpack what looks likely to be instore for June, her family, friends and the people of Gilead as we countdown to what seems to be an epic final fight for freedom. Season 6 of ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ will stream free on SBS On Demand from Tuesday 8 April, with the triple episode premiere fast-tracked to be available from 2.01pm. The season will continue to be fast-tracked with new episodes available weekly on Tuesdays up to the finale on May 27.

Plus with ‘Audrey’ now streaming on Netflix, we also revisited our review and interview with its director Natalie Bailey from November last year to set you up for one of the most quirky, hilarious, and chaotic Aussie films you may have missed in 2024.
