Have virgin broadband super hub and won't work on unblock-us according to their website.
Not even if you only change the DNS in the actual device on which you're using Netflix rather than in the hub itself?
I use the PS3. Is it possible to change the DNS on that?
You should be able to do that, I have a Virgin hub and watch Netflix US through my Wii, just had to change the DNS setting on the Wii

The unblock-us site has step by step instructions on how to change the settings on the PS3.

Watched 'I saw the devil' on US netflix this week, probably overrated on IMDB but still good.

Also watched 'Session 9', well worth a watch IMO.

Noticed that Blackfish is on most regions now....if anyone missed this a few weeks ago on terrestrial tv, it's a very moving and quite sad documentary about the killer whales and the deaths of some of their trainers at Seaworld in the US. Well worth watching, even if a little piss boiling at times...

There's a film called pawn shop chronicles on Netflix and its well worth a watch.
the only way I can describe it is like a deep south pulp fiction.

Its got loads of big name stars and is my favorite film of 2013 by quite a big margin.

Its several stories that are somehow intertwined by a ring found in a pawnshop and involves racist Meth addicts, one mans search for revenge,and a disillusional Elvis impersonator all taking place in a very strange small hick town.

Its a solid 9/10 from me.
I watched this after reading your post, only 6/10 from me though, thought it was a bit crap tbh smile

Just downloaded the Hola unblocker after reading about it on here! Wow.

Finished watching breaking bad which is utterly incredible in every way. Do any of the series available really come close?

Some of the better films I've watched on UK netflix have been The Words, Seven Pounds, The Twilight Samurai, Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind, Into The Wild, Fargo & Rushmore. As for TV shows, Breaking Bad was excellent!

Just a note to those using netflix via their pc & browser

I use google chrome and there is an extension called 'zenMate' which allows nice and simple IP/country changing

Switzerland
Hong Kong
USA
Germany
UK

Also handy for accessing any blocked sites and region sensitive youtube clips etc smile

Can't believe what is available to US customers on netflix! - Friends, Family guy, scrubs and terminator 2 !!

House of Cards (2013) starring Kevin Spacey is utterly brilliant.
Second this. One of the best tv series ever. Season 2 is coming out soon.

Also from Netflix, and like me many will be put off this by its theme, but I absolutely loved Sons of Anarchy.
Slightly puerile compared with Breaking Bad or similar, but utterly addictive and very watchable.

I've just watched Drive. It was on bbc iPlayer. Really enjoyed it, maybe it was because I didn't expect it to be any good but hooked from the start to the end.

I tried my best with Sons of Anarchy but just couldn't find motivation to carry on watching it, also thought the acting was rather terrible as well.

I might give house of cards a go

Shame. Ive recommended it various people in real life and there is a pretty even split between people who love it and people who say the same as you. How much did you watch out of curiosity?

If you don't mind subtitles (or speak French) then Spiral is well worth a watch. I'm nearly finished with season 3, only started watching it a few weeks ago!
