A Very English Scandal

[foxy]

I just finished watching the first two episodes of this incredibly entertaining series. A big hit in the UK and soon coming to Amazon Prime. All based on a true story which makes it even more fun.

Brilliant show. Watched all three episodes. There is a companion documentary on the BBC that was hidden for years. Looks very interesting.

Eager to see this, but can't find it anywhere, even on KODI. Read that it will be on Netflix June 29.

It's coming to Amazon Prime Video not Netflix. I was able to watch it on bbc.co.uk.

Some good lines in epi 1.

Queer as springtime. Anyone else catch that?

Also, "that's not wrong" Thorpe glancing down towards Norman's lap.

Finished binging it. I've been a fan of Russell T. Davies, and this didn't disappoint. The underlying theme of the national insurance card was clever, to the end.

 

I was not aware that this story was based on real life events.

 

Ben Whishaw and Hugh Grant are very good in this.
