Mrs Harris goes to Paris.

A lovely gentle watch. Set in the late 50s.

Wicked Little Letters - Netflix. Starring Olivia Coleman, and allegedly based on true events. Who is sending anonymous letters using very naughty language? It has very varied reviews, but I'm with the critics who enjoyed it.

Bird Box and Bird Box Barcelona.
The first one is particularly good and great acting.

I’ve just cancelled our Netflix subscription because I can never find anything to watch,everything is so American. I will probably rejoin one day, maybe ( or maybe not). They put the price up here but the offerings were worse. I have Amazon Prime but might not renew that, either, for similar reasons.

I will try bird box
Nanna8, there is a lot of British stuff on there and comedy. I'm not sure about Australian though

I liked The Sinner and loved Wicked Little Letters! The latter probably not ideal viewing for anyone who comes over all faint at the merest swear word! grin

I agree ‘Wicked Little Letters’ is a good film if you can see past the foul language. ‘Page Eight’ is a good film - Bill Nighy and a strong cast of well known names. It, and ‘Green Book’ (superb) are both on Netflix.

I think you get better stuff than we do . I have got Britbox which is all British. Much better . They interfere with our Netflix because some different companies , like Foxtel, get rights for all the good things . ( Not many of us like all the American stuff here!)

Gave up on Mrs Harris and Chesil Beach. I enjoy things like Unforgiven and the Harlan Coben series.
