Get ready to binge! These are the new shows and movies on Netflix now
While it may be the middle of summer right now, it certainly doesn’t look like it. The sun has come and gone and now we’re left with dull, overcast skies and plenty of miserable showers on the way.
What we wouldn’t give to be laying out on a sandy beach somewhere with the sun beating down on us and a pina colada in hand…
But alas, here we are stuck at home making our own stronger-than-they-probably-should-be cocktails, and you know what? They don’t taste half bad! If you’re staying in this weekend, then look on the bright side — Netflix have just added a whopper list of brand new titles, ready for us to stream right now!
Check out all of the amazing new shows and movies which have been added to Netflix just in time for the weekend:
Sophie – A Murder In West Cork (Now on Netflix)
The unresolved mystery that surrounds the murder of a luminously beautiful, talented French woman in a remote corner of Ireland, nearly 25 years ago is the subject of this mesmerising, three-part Netflix documentary. It gives a rigorous account of the details of her tragic death and examines the many unanswered questions at the heart of the case. It explores, too, the controversy around the prime suspect, Ian Bailey. Still a free man, who continues to live in the community that was rocked by Sophie’s murder, Bailey was never tried in Ireland but was found guilty by many in the court of public opinion and by a panel of judges in France in 2019, where he was tried ‘in absentia’ and sentenced to 25 years imprisonment. Most of all, however, the documentary is a tribute to a family’s tireless pursuit of justice and to Sophie herself; the mother, the daughter, the poetess, the TV producer and the woman who has, in her own way, become part of the myth of West Cork and of the haunting landscape where she died.
