Last week's episode of The Handmaid's Tale certainly tugged on the heartstrings. Bullets flew at the vigil for the dead of the failed rescue mission. June threw her body over the daughter of the killed mission commander but who was responsible for the disruption?
All hope is not lost. While receiving guests at the new fertility centre with baby Noah, Serena makes a beeline for the nearest exit when given a moment to nurse. Stepping into traffic, she convinces a woman driving by to let her hop in. What comes next? Well, we'll have to wait and see as Commander Lawrence all but declares war on June.

Travelling away outside Australia this week? You can always use a VPN to access SBS from overseas . We recommend using ExpressVPN. Details below.
Watch The Handmaid's Tale season 5 from abroad with a VPN
Even if you have subscribed to The Handmaid's Tale season 5 rights holders, you won't be able to use them when outside your own country. The service will know your location based on your IP address, and will automatically block your access.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) helps you get around this obstacle. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, and can fool streaming services into thinking that you're located somewhere else in the world.
There are many VPN providers out there, with some more reliable and safe than others. As a rule, we’d suggest a paid-for service such as ExpressVPN which we rate as the best VPN for streaming. It offers 100 percent risk-free money back guarantee. If you're not happy with the service any time within the first 30-days, then you can cancel with no penalties at all.

Using a VPN to watch The Handmaid's Tale season 5 is incredibly simple.

If, for whatever reason, you can't get it working, then do remember that you have the comfort of a 30-day money back guarantee with ExpressVPN. You could also try NordVPN, which also comes with a 30-day money back guarantee, and Surfshark which offers 24 hour assistance.
