While the long-running American weekday soap Days of Our Lives is broadcast on etv in South Africa, NBC in America has commissioned a terrific-looking limited-series spin-off, Days of Our Lives: Beyond Salem.
 

It is filled with OG Salem superstars like Marlena, John, Billie and many more, a drag queen impersonating Billie, and even clones, all wrapped in a spy-and-jewel mystery.
 

Days of Our Lives: Beyond Salem will start on the American streaming service Peacock on 6 September with a daily new episode until Friday 10 September.
 

There's no word yet on whether the 5-episode series might be distributed internationally or whether etv might pick it up for its new eVOD streaming service or as a special weeklong primetime Days of Our Lives encore on the television station.
