“Compelling” star-studded British crime drama from early 2000s jumps up Netflix’s UK trending chart

I can’t believe it, but I’ve found myself hooked on this amazing show called “The Jury”. It’s a top-notch British crime drama that everyone’s talking about, and I totally get why! It’s been shooting up Netflix’s trending lists lately. Can’t wait to see what happens next!

In 2002 and 2011, a show penned by Peter Morgan from “The Crown” was broadcast on ITV for two seasons. Each season followed a distinct legal case that had gripped the nation’s interest.

The show “The Jury” is distinguished for being the first to be filmed at the Old Bailey. It features an impressive ensemble of British actors, including Gerard Butler, Helen McCrory, Mark Strong, Steven Mackintosh, and Julie Walters.

Since its release on Netflix a few days ago, the legal drama has quickly gained popularity among British viewers. At the moment, it ranks sixth on Netflix’s list of most-watched shows (according to FlixPatrol).

Beyond attracting a substantial number of viewers recently, The Jury has additionally received positive feedback from its audience. Currently, the show boasts a robust user rating of 7.6 out of 10 on IMDb, based on more than 1300 reviews.

One user expressed their awe by saying, “I left feeling astonished by just how excellent I found it to be… What makes this show stand out is its deep dive into the jurors’ personal stories (a perspective seldom depicted),” with the performances being “simply outstanding.

According to another user, they found the acting to be quite impressive as it effectively portrayed the widespread doubt and terror felt by everyone on the jury. They also praised the gripping narrative for being told in a captivating manner that kept them engaged throughout.

Another viewer expressed their satisfaction, saying, “I’d love to see more. This series is exceptionally well-crafted in writing, acting, and production. I can’t help but wonder why there isn’t more of it…the concept is fantastic!” Meanwhile, another viewer used words like “powerful,” “thoughtful,” and “compelling” to describe their experience with the series.

If legal dramas don’t appeal to you, then Netflix probably offers something else that catches your interest. For instance, they recently added the mystery series “Loch Ness,” featuring Siobhan Finneran and Laura Fraser.

The Jury is streaming on Netflix now.

Here it is: The latest print issue from Digital Spy, titled “Oasis – Live in ’25”, is available! You can purchase it at your local newsstands or online for only £8.99.
