I'm actually tempted to get Netflix just for this film. It sounds amazing.

The scenes where Sarah Lancashire and Keira Knightley face off are really something to behold – two phenomenal actors at the height of their game bouncing off one another with ample room to really flex their talents.

Usually one for a period drama, Knightley is as you've never really seen her before. Splattered in blood and not too shy to wield a kitchen knife, her no-nonsense character Helen perfectly straddles the two worlds of doting mother and fearless spy. This is keenly illustrated in one of the first moments we see her in action on screen, warding off some baddies like it was a casual Wednesday-evening activity while taking a FaceTime from her daughter who is struggling to sleep.

Are they doing any free trials and you could binge it, otherwise bite the bullet and get it for a month

…it’s a series, I think…6 episodes but I’m not sure if it’s a one off/stand alone series or if it’ll have any follow up seasons…I was reading earlier that it was given 100% rating from Rotten Tomatoes…so hopefully it’ll be a riveting watch…(…although I don’t know the storyline…)…

Ooh it sounds right up my street. Will it come out on DVD at some point? I'm reluctant to get Netflix.

…yeah, I was just googling and reading that Netflix is a streaming site that doesn’t generally do any free trial periods…series/movies do often tend to stretch out to other sites also and it may show on one of the non subscribing ones …but I imagine the streamers buy a time period first when they’ll have exclusivity…?…I'm not sure, though, I’m just guessing….(…there may be other ways to watch these things/other sites…but that’s not something that I’m very knowledgeable about…)….

If you get Netflix you need to watch Man on the Inside. Such a lovely and funny show.
