Episode 3
Karla has been with her fiancé Carl for 10 years, but with a houseful of kids and a busy job, she's had enough of him not understanding what it takes to keep the household ticking over. She says Carl's version of cleaning is just spraying air freshener in the room!
They have been engaged for six years and says she won't marry him until he steps up and shows her appreciation. She's desperate for more time to herself and whilst Carl gets to go out for his regular haircuts and coffees with the lads, she's been missing out.
Just days into Karla's strike, Carl is already at breaking point as he tries to take on some of his partner's duties. The constant "Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad!" drives him up the wall and the kids survive almost exclusively on a diet of pizza. However, with some encouragement from a friend and some time to reflect, both parties realise things at home have to change, if there is to be any chance of wedding bells.
In a different household, Sarah is a hardworking, full-time mother and full-time content creator who does all the hard graft at home. She hoovers, dusts, mops, cleans the cupboards, gets the kids ready for school, mothers her 9-month-old baby, works daily from home, cooks, does the dishes, does the kids' homework, cleans the kids' mess, washes the clothes. She even manages to rustle up a late breakfast for husband Kwaku when he nips home from his job as a care worker.
But Kwaku believes the housework is mainly Sarah's responsibility as she is a woman and therefore the "homemaker". He feels cultural reasons are why the dynamic is at it is, just like his Mum did all the work at home so he expects this from his wife. He even starts to compare the two women in his life, which doesn't go down well. However, after being left alone at home with the kids, and some sleepless nights, he soon realises that perhaps things may need to change if his ambitious wife is also going to have a chance at fulfilling her dreams.

Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
The Handmaid's Tale
The Handmaid's Tale is the story of life in the dystopia of Gilead, a totalitarian society in what was formerly the United States. Facing environmental disasters and a plunging birthrate, Gilead is ruled by a twisted fundamentalism in its militarized ‘return to traditional values'. As one of the few remaining fertile women, Offred is a Handmaid in the Commander's household, one of the caste of women forced into sexual servitude as a last desperate attempt to repopulate the world. In this terrifying society, Offred must navigate between Commanders, their cruel Wives, domestic Marthas, and her fellow Handmaids – where anyone could be a spy for Gilead – all with one goal: to survive and find the daughter that was taken from her.
