Locke and Key
Locke and Key is a short and enjoyable watch that you don’t need to invest too much into (we’re basically saying it’s a good one to watch if you’re flicking through your phone at the same time!).

Starring Darby Stanchfield, Conor Jessup, Emilia Jones and many others, this is a recent nugget on Netflix as it was only premiered on the site in February of this year.

The Code
While this political thriller doesn’t scream billions of dollars in budget, it is thoroughly engaging. The storyline is based on two brothers, one of whom is a computer whiz kid and the other a journalist. While investigating a deadly car crash they get involved in cracking a national conspiracy. It is definitely a ‘binge watch’ type of series so we recommend you start early as you won’t be able to stop!
