Why is it that "cette époque-là" needs to be prefixed with "à" while "cette semaine-là" can do without ?
This question relates to:French lesson "Ce, cet, cette, ces [duration] -là / -ci = that/those or this/these [duration] (demonstrative adjectives)"

Bonjour Joakim !
I guess it's similar to the difference between saying "that week..." and "AT that time...".
It's just something to remember, you cannot say "cette époque-là" or "à cette semaine-là" in French :)
À bientôt !
