I think I saw Official Secrets on Netflix and thought it was very good.

'The Chair' was interesting. A 6 parter set in an American university.

another vote for Unorthodox & Offspring, also Rake it's a real gem .Money Heist, StartUp, Fatma was really good just one season but we enjoyed it & will probably watch it again.

I keep saying it - Homeland. Exciting, thrilling, addictive. And, going to the other extreme, Schitt’s Creek. Wonderful!

There is a 3 part series called "Don't f* with Cats' very dark and extremely well made. Apparently it got a well deserved Emmy.

The Cook of Castamar. In Spanish with subtitles but beautifully filmed.

WORTH -Lawyer Kenneth Feinberg played by Michael Keaton volunteers to be the “Special Master” of the Sept 11th Victims Compensation Fund. Highly recommend

Just watched 'Mrs Wilson'. I'd seen it on BBC years ago but really enjoyed seeing it again.

We recently watched "The Defeated", set in Berlin at the end of the war. It was so well-made, and although a bit gory at times, we were both impressed with the production and the story line. Don't watch it if you are a bit squeamish, though!
We loved "Mrs Wilson", Aveline, what a brilliant story. And to those who liked "Kominsky Method" - so did we! I hate searching through the endless list of films on Netflix, but some of them are gold!

Another vote for Homeland.

I agree Homeland was thrilling, and thank the op for the 'Worth', a true story, recommendation.

I watched suffragette yesterday and today I watched 'the starling' and cried through most of it blush
