it potentially could take the longest time ever to decide given the number of cardinals has been increased dramatically since the last vote. There will be so many factions now, it must be mind boggling

Yes it's great. Bit sensationalised as you'd expect but it's very gripping and very well acted

I thought I read somewhere that the Pope should be selected from outside Europe as the last two were European, maybe it was just a suggestion

There are divisions so I don't think it is going to be a fast process, between the more Liberal thinking Cardinals and the hard liners

There's some great little scenes in it too like when you see the cardinals having a final play on their phones or a cheeky cigarette before they're locked away for the Conclave

Think I'll have to give it a rewatch this week as well
