As winter draws in we are going to be watching more Netflix so I am hoping to get some excellent recommendations from fellow gransnetters which we and others will find useful.
Let me start by suggesting a few that we have watched and enjoyed.
Offspring
Spiral
Breaking Bad
Rake
The Crown
Unorthodox
Maid
House of Cards
Designated Survivor

I would recommend the documentary The Puppet Master ( from the makers of Dont F**k With Cats). One of the strangest and most scary stories I've seen in a long time. They say truth is stranger than fiction, this certainly is. I felt so very sorry for the families affected. I recommend everyone watches this one.

I recently discovered an Australian series called Offspring (mentioned earlier by kelari) and am hooked. Set in Melbourne it's about a female obstetrician, her work life and family. It's a comedy drama with laugh-out-loud parts but serious at times too. Lots of hunky Australian doctors too! There are 7 series and was originally shown 2010 to 2017. I'm at end of series 2 and really enjoying it.
