Catch up on the first three seasons of Game of Thrones on DStv’s Explora

Thanks to a partnership between DStv and HBO, DStv Premium subscribers will be able to catch up on all three seasons of Game of Thrones, in preparation for the premiere of Season 4 on M-Net.

Exclusively available to owners of a DStv Explora , Seasons 1 to 3 of Game of Thrones will be offered as three complete Box Sets on DStv Catch Up – starting with Season 1 on Friday, 14 March, followed by Season 2 on Friday, 21 March and Season 3 on Friday, 28 March.

This will give viewers the chance to catch up on episodes they missed, or start watching the series and be part of the frenzy.

When Season 4 premieres on M-Net, DStv channel 101 on 18 April, it will also build up, week-on-week, into a super stack, which will see all episodes of Season 4 available to watch on the DStv Explora by the time the season has ended.

Simon Camerer, Chief Marketing Officer for DStv, says that this is an exciting partnership for DStv.

“We strive to bring our subscribers premium entertainment at all times. When we launched the Explora, we brought something unique to the market and this partnership is a first of much more to come.

“The DStv Explora was specifically designed to give viewers the opportunity to watch the content that they love on their own terms.

“To this extent,” he adds, “we are already looking into more partnerships that will allow us to super stack series and make Box Sets available via DStv Catch Up as just one of the many benefits of owning a DStv Explora.”

Seasons 1 to 3 of Game of Thrones will also be made available to Premium subscribers to stream of downloads via the DStv Catch Up website , and also via iPads and iPhones with the DStv iOS app .

The DStv Explora, records up to 220 hours of high definition television, which equates to approximately 100 movies or 150 TV series episodes.

The 2 terabyte hard drive of the DStv Explora mean DStv can offer a larger content selection on its popular Catch Up service and Box Office, bringing the total amount of HD content up to approximately 200 hours, all of which can be accessed on demand.
