Brazen
After 40 years of living life in a closed, orthodox Jewish community, Julia Haart escaped. She changed her life around to become a creative director with La Perla.
You don’t know me
Thriller? Legal drama? One thing's for sure, You don't know me is a gritty & gripping London based Netflix series. And a masterclass in how to give a speech.
After Life
From Ricky Gervais' brilliant twisted mind, the Netflix series After Life is dark humour at its best. Dealing with grief, hope and living life to the full, it is laugh-out-loud funny, but that's Gervais for you.
Tom Thorne
I'm a sucker for a thrilling detective story, and I've recently binged on Mark Billingham's Detective Tom Thorne series. A flawed hero, a sizzling supporting cast and a continuous quest to rid London's streets of the most ingenious criminals and crimes.
The Crown (Season 5)
With shorter days comes longer hours in front of the TV. The latest season of The Crown will be online on 9 November on Netflix. Full of controversy, especially after the Queen's recent death, some critics warn that this next season has jumped the shark.
War Doctor
If you fancy a gripping read for the long weekend, try David Nott's War Doctor. This is his memoir of working in war zones all over the globe with organisations like Doctors without Borders.
Where the crawdads sing
The sumptuously-filmed thriller is gripping (even if I'd have preferred a little more of the courtroom drama!). The controversy around the story and the author make the film all that more interesting.
Central Park West
You'd expect an ex-FBI director's novel to be heavy on procedure. It's an engaging thriller despite the gritty details of law enforcement.
