Duke of Devo Yeah The Veil was OK but her English accent was a bit unconvincing for me.

Presumed Innocent is very good but similar to The Undoing in the plot.

"Agree Sydney. Blue lights was very good. Recently watched severance as well. Enjoyed it. Just started S3 of the bear, season 2 was one of the best seasons of a show I’ve ever watched."

Good 6 parter called The Veil well worth a watch Modern spy/terrorism shenanigans with a side of Shemama Begum thrown in! Also The Sympathizer if you like a bit of ‘Nam action/storyline!

Really enjoyed The 8 Show on Netflix. Few parallels with Squid Game. Absolutely brutal in places and a tough watch but really good.
