We’ve got good news and bad news. The good news is that a slew of classic live-action Nickelodeon titles has been licensed to Netflix for at least two years today. The bad news is that, like other Nickelodeon titles on Netflix, they’re not available on Netflix in full meaning if you want complete start-to-finish binges, you’ll need to jump over to Paramount+.

Yesterday we see the return of the biopic starring British duo Judi Dench and Steve Coogan.
Nominated for four Oscars the movie comes and goes from Netflix quite often but we always give it a recommendation whenever it returns because of how good it is.

“A kind-hearted Irishwoman teams with an acerbic journalist to find the son she was forced to give up for adoption 50 years ago.”
