Victoria sees Jenna Coleman as the young Queen Victoria as she grapples with her personal life and responsibilities as the reigning monarch, with Tom Hughes as her husband Prince Albert.

Adrian Schiller, Tommy Knight, Jordan Waller, Nell Hudson, Ferdinand Kingsley, Anna Wilson-Jones, Daniela Holtz and Catherine Flemming also star.

Victoria's synopsis reads: "Queen Victoria ascends the throne and asserts her authority in a male-dominated court, resisting political manipulation and those who underestimate her."

The drama, which premiered in 2016, ran for three seasons, giving you 25 episodes to binge. But you'll have to be quick as Victoria leaves the streaming service on 30 September.

Fearless

The late Helen McCrory stars alongside Sir Michael Gambon in six-part ITV crime drama Fearless.

It follows a human rights lawyer who is convinced that a convicted murderer is innocent of killing a 14-year-old schoolgirl and will go to extreme lengths to uncover the truth.

The drama also stars Catastrophe's Jonathan Forbes, Lovecraft Country's Wunmi Mosaku, and comedian John Bishop.

Fearless leaves Netflix on 12 October.

In the Long Run

In the Long Run ran for three seasons and aired 19 episodes. The series leaves Netflix on 7 October.
