I was just half way through watching it and it has now vanished from the platform and is unavailable for streaming!

Just looked and it appears to work for me on my PC.

From the reviews I heard I don't think you'd be missing much though...

Thanks smile

Now trying to figure out if it is a VPN issue or something. My 'best' region changed to Germany but messing around with it doesnt seem to helping.

Oh well smile

It's far from a masterpiece (to put it mildly!) but if you accept that then it's a brain out fun ride

Ok, it is available for me on the netflix website, but no longer on the desktop app!

I get much better 'reception' on the app...

Thanks for the reviews, it is actually one of my favourite of the series. I like the interaction between all the big names.

And it is like a comedy action, rather than serious action flick.

Is it akin to Vexed? (detective comedy-drama with Toby Stephens etc.) Although I'm guessing Vexed is more on the comedy side....

Hobbs and Shaw are both from Fast and Furious, not a detective type show.

As much as I slated it above, I think it's on my list to watch on Sunday whilst hungover

Find out what your public IP is: https://whatismyipaddress.com/

Then look up that IP to see which country it's registered in. (click on the IP or, enter it here https://whatismyipaddress.com/ip-lookup)

Try this with VPN turned on and off, and see if the country it thinks you're in changes.

That's basically what Netflix do to decide your region, and there's not really a way around it.
