As the world grapples with the Covid-19 pandemic, many of us are finding ourselves stuck at home with nothing but time on our hands. But for Netflix, this lockdown has been a blessing in disguise.

According to a recent report, Netflix is doing booming business, with many of us turning to the streaming service to pass the time. And it's not just Netflix that's benefiting - other streaming channels like Hulu, Showmax, and Disney Plus are also seeing a surge in viewership.

But while others are catching up, Netflix remains the top dog in the game, offering a wide range of content from comedy and drama to documentaries and mysteries. And if you're looking for something to really get your teeth into, I highly recommend checking out the British-American murder mystery 'Traitors'.

Set at the end of World War Two and the early hours of the Cold War, 'Traitors' is a fascinating tale of love, betrayal, and espionage. The story follows Feef, a young woman graduate of Cambridge, and her American boyfriend Peter, who is killed by his colleague Rowe, a villainous character with ulterior motives.

As the series unfolds, we see Feef become embroiled in a game of cat and mouse with Rowe, who plans to turn her into a spy to infiltrate the British Foreign Office. But Feef is not one to be underestimated - she's a strong and determined character who is not afraid to take risks.

With its complex characters and intricate plot, 'Traitors' is not your typical spy thriller. And the most serious shocker of the series is saved for the last episode, so be sure to stick around until the very end.
