Very good series, a man is taken hostage and appears online, holding a placard saying that he has abused women and killed 1 woman, if the number of views reaches 5 million he will die.
His sister is intent on finding him using Social Media and the cops. The series follows the wife and children and also the Media in their search. No warnings ref, sex, violence or swearing that I recall.

That sounds good. Always love dramas on Netflix, and the beauty is you can watch them all at once, without having to wait a week, and then try to remember what was happening!

We were looking for something. We’re taping ‘ Vigil ‘, but of course, that’s six episodes, so we wait until we have them all.

That’s the next four nights sorted! Thank you Oopsadaisy

I've been watching it got 2 more episodes left, I tend to binge watch Netflix and Amazon Prime series. Really enjoying it so far.

Watched three last night. Not bowled over to be honest. A good plot spoilt by wooden acting, especially the character ‘ Pia ‘, who behaves more like a teenage girl!

Will persevere as want to find out I suppose.

I think it's gripping. On episode 7 at the moment and have had to stop everything to watch to the end !!!!

Without spoiling the end for those who haven’t got there yet, what did you all think? We’re you correct?

I wasn’t!

No got it completely wrong, but it was a good twist at the end.

Now watching on Prime TV 9 Complete Stangers with Nicole Kidman would recommend really good.

We are also watching 9 strangers but it’s a weekly thing…..

Daisymae Sun 05-Sept-21 08:01:38

No, I got it wrong too. Thought that it was very good.

Yes 9 Complete Strangers is a weekly series, I've watched the first 5 and will wait a few weeks then watch a few more.

I guessed it was something to do with the secretary, when she was happy to let Pia look at Matt’s computer.

Was a good twist, just didn’t enjoy the acting.

I enjoyed Click Bait, but was expecting it to go on and on and on, with the sister, wife, mistress view point continuing with the view point of the dog, the cat, the paper lad, window cleaner etc etc, it dragged on a bit, yawn lol.
