Thank god for Netflix, eh?

While many of us naively hoped that coronavirus quarantine measures would end next week, the UK government has now said it is too early to consider an exit strategy for the lockdown. Indeed, the foreign secretary, Dominic Raab, has said shifting the focus from social distancing measures could mean “we won’t get through the Covid-19 peak as fast as we need to”.

As such, we’re all hunkering down and preparing to spend even more time indoors. This means that, yeah, we’re continuing to burn through our Netflix watchlists like nobody’s business. Whether it’s must-watch TV dramas like Unorthodox, true crime documentaries like Tiger King, retro classics like Beetlejuice (easily the most relatable movie on the streaming platform right now) or horror films like The Platform, there’s something on there for everyone.

At the moment, though, everyone is apparently watching Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.

As in, yeah, the 1986 movie about a teenage boy (Matthew Broderick) skipping school so he can make the most of a glorious summer’s day in Chicago.
