started Giri Haji (Duty Shame) last night. 8 episodes - 2 down and it is brilliant. Will try and do teh rest tonight. A BBC production but on Netflix - Yakuza troubles in Japan but mostly set in London - all the key ingrediants of great script, actors, locations - murder, violence, sex, betrayal - highly recommended

Stretch it out, don't watch it all in one go. It is a cracking show and, largely, maintains it right through. If you have enjoyed it so far then you will enjoy the rest.

Where was it on? Will I blub like a baby ??

Answer to the second question yes. As for where it was on then it is on the NBC YouTube channel. However you need to be in the US or have a vpn to make youtube think you are in the US. I'm lucky as I have a vpn to our US office so used that, there are other vpn's available but I couldn't recommend one as I've never used them.

Money Heist, a Spanish series on Netflix. I've watched 4 episodes in series 1 and it is very good, very tense.

One obvious flaw, the negotiator ? (there are no spoilers here)
She is barely there when other key people never leave the tent
She is emotionally unstable
She is blabbing about the case to a complete stranger

I'll forgive them as she is lovely ❤?? but it is the stand out weakness in the plot at this point.

Put this on the other day, but couldn't put up with the dialogue being dubbed. Is there an option to watch it in Spanish with English subtitles?

I use NordVPN, it is excellent. There are some free ones out there, but they really throttle your bandwidth for live sport (remember that?). Would probably be fine for this though.

I really liked the first few episodes despite a few warning signs and stuck with it as the script, acting, character development etc went out of the window.

Sorry, you've got me the wrong way round. The version I saw was dubbed (badly), I'm looking for the original with English subtitles.
Ah, right. That is the version we are watching now on Netflix. The original voices, English subtitles. We did not do anything special to find it, type Heist in the search bar and it's the first one that comes up.

Recently, some of the foreign drama starts in the dubbed version by default. To switch back, just pause the programme and then select subtitles on the menu
