While people still navigate their way out of the coronavirus pandemic, Netflix UK’s sizeable library of movies and TV shows remains a handy resource for keeping entertained indoors.

But before you start bingeing through its new originals, don’t miss out on catching up with some other gems before their rights expire and they head to another service, or just disappear into the digital ether.

This is your last chance to stream the following on Netflix UK:

Scream: The TV Series – 16th July

Based on the film franchise, this show’s aim throughout is to make you forget it’s a horror story – and then let that fact creep up on you every episode. You might not always scream, but for undemanding thrills, this TV series gets you every time.

Attack the Block – 17th July

Jodie Whittaker and John Boyega are fantastic in Joe Cornish’s small-scale sci-fi gem.

Cockneys vs Zombies – 17th July

Cockneys vs Zombies gives you more than enough Roy Hudd for your Bread and Honey. Well worth a Paul McKenna.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy – 17th July

This impeccable adaptation of John le Carre’s spy thriller is an atmospheric puzzle of betrayal, distrust and decline.

Emma (2020) – 21st July

A funny cast and a witty script make this candy-coloured Jane Austen adaptation a bubbly, energetic watch.

The Invisible Man (2020) – 28th July

This chilling update of the classic sci-fi story makes the all-too-real issue of gaslighting terrifyingly visceral.

Queen & Slim – 30th July

Daniel Kaluuya and Jodie Turner-Smith are brilliant in this gripping couple-on-the-run thriller.

Creed – 31st July

A gripping, moving human drama that finds fresh weight in boxing movie conventions.

Ghostbusters (2016) – 31st July

This hugely entertaining reboot is so busy doing its own thing that it’s impossible not to enjoy.

Munich – 31st July

One of Spielberg’s most underrated films, this dark 2005 thriller follows five men, who are chosen to find the terrorists responsible for taking 11 Israeli athletes hostage and murdering them following Munich’s 1972 Olympics.

The Nightingale (2018) – 31st July

Jennifer Kent relives real horrors of history in this harrowing, brutal, powerful revenge drama.

Spaced – 1st August

“I’m an artist.” “What sort of thing?” “Pain… Fear… Anger… Aggression.” “Watercolours?”

’71 – 2nd August

Is there anything Jack O’Connell can’t do? In a year that saw him take the lead in both Starred Up and Unbroken, he also starred in Yann Demange’s debut flick about a young British soldier abandoned by his unit following a riot on the streets of 1971 Belfast. Unable to tell friend from foe, this is a thrilling, shocking sprint through history that distills war into the simple urge to survive.

The Hunt (2020) – 5th August

More farce than satire, this gory actioner promises mutually assured distraction.

Ocean’s Eleven (2001) – 5th August

Don’t miss your chance to binge your way through Steven Soderbergh’s slick heist trilogy.

The Photograph (2020) – 5th August

Issa Rae and LaKeith Stanfield have serious chemistry in this engaging, low-key romantic drama.

Nocturama – 10th August

A mesmerising tour de force.
