When this series started its life as a UK production for Channel 4 it could be described variously as, revolutionary, subversive, dark, subliminal and wholly awesome. Then Netflix came along..... Now words I'd use to describe it include, bland, woke, lecturing, predictable, formulaic and largely unwatchable. As far as I'm concerned season 5 is beyond redemption and the last time I'll go anywhere near the franchise. Update: Mistakenly took a quick look at season 7, still dull and generally dreadful. 1/10.
