10. Investigation Alien: Season 1
Kicking off the countdown with the first new entry of the week, Investigation Alien pretty much does what it says on the tin, as investigative journalist George Knapp travels the world to uncover new evidence about UFOs. He’s a pro when it comes to this kind of thing – Knapp has been investigating all things extra-terrestrial since the 1980s, and was the person who broke the infamous Area 51 story. So you can bet this will be a fascinating watch. 2 million of you tuned in over the past week to discover if there is anyone else out there (Picture: Netflix)
9. This Is The Zodiac Speaking: Season 1
We all know how much Netflix viewers love a true crime drama, so it’s no surprise to see this one hanging around in the top 10. This time around the focus is on the Zodiac killings – a series of murders that took place in the 60s that haven’t been solved and with the killer still unidentified. One particular family think they have the answers, and share their testimonies about the prime suspect, Arthur Leigh Allen. Over the past week 2.1 million of you watched this (Picture: Netflix)
8. Territory: Season 1
Hanging in there at number eight is this Australian neo-Western drama, which has already been dubbed ‘Yellowstone replacement’ by fans of that show. The story revolves around the world’s largest livestock farm as it is suddenly left without a successor, leaving the money-making Australian outback estate a free-for-all. Who will come out the strongest and claim the farm? You’ll have to tune in to find out. As indeed 2.4 million of you did over the past week (Picture: Netflix)
7. The Diplomat: Season 1
With The Diplomat’s second season proving to be a big hit with viewers – and a third season on the way – it’s no surprise to see the first season rearing its head in the charts once more. Kate Wyler (Keri Russell) is the US diplomat to the UK, who is brought in to deal with several international crises – with viewers now getting the chance to see where it all began before diving into the new episodes. 2.6 million of you have watched this over the past week (Picture: ALEX BAILEY/NETFLIX)
6. The Lincoln Lawyer: Season 3
The exploits of optimistic LA lawyer Mickey Haller are continuing to prove popular with Netflix viewers, as the third season of the show – based on the character created by author Michael Connolly – notches up yet another week in the top 10. Haller (Manuel Garcia-Ruffo) is an idealist who runs his practice from the back of his Lincoln Town Car, taking on cases big and small, with the latest batch of episodes based on Connolly’s 2013 novel The Gods Of Guilt. A whole 3.4 million of you watched this over the past week (Picture: NETFLIX)
5. Beauty In Black: Season 1
Last week’s number one has dropped four big places down the charts, hanging on to its top five status. This new drama series follows Kimmie, whose life is turned upside down when she unexpectedly connects with the wealthy, powerful Bellaire family after applying for a scholarship to their prestigious hair school. Alongside their successful cosmetics dynasty, Kimmie soon learns they run a calculating trafficking scheme, too. It may not be top dog anymore, but it still grabbed 4.3 million viewers over the past week (Picture: CALVIN ASHFORD/NETFLIX)
4. Countdown: Paul vs Tyson: Season 1
The next new entry in this week’s chart is one for pugilists everywhere – and particularly those looking forward to seeing Mike Tyson take on Jake Paul in the ring on November 15. Countdown takes a look at the pair’s training camps and personal lives as they prep for the bout, with intensive training regimes and defensive game plans the order of the day. This one’s certainly fighting for its spot in the Netflix top 10, punching up 4.4 million viewers in the past week (Picture: Mike Angel/Netflix)
3. The Diplomat: Season 2
Our second helping of The Diplomat kicks off the top three, with Kate Wyler’s (Keri Russell) continued adventures as she attempts to juggle the job of ambassador to the UK with her turbulent personal life. Season one ended on a bit of a cliffhanger and the new series is equally tense – with the plot developing in ways you might not see coming. Its continued success suggests people can’t get enough of it though, adding a further 5.9 million viewers to its tally this week (Picture: ALEX BAILEY/NETFLIX)
2. Arcane: Season 2
This week’s highest new entry comes courtesy of this animated series, which was so critically adored on its first outing that it’s no surprise to see it return for a second run (and get the attention it deserves from viewers). Set in Utopian Piltover and the oppressed underground of Zaun, the show follows the origins of two iconic League of Legends champions, Vi and Jinx – who become embroiled in a developing conflict over clashing convictions and Arcane technologies. Were you one of the 6.3 million people who watched this over the past week? (Picture: COURTESY OF NETFLIX)
1. Outer Banks: Season 4
So we have a new number one – of sorts – because it’s actually a return to the top for the fourth season of Outer Banks which should come as a surprise to no-one since the second half of the series was released this week. In case you’re still playing catch-up, it follows a teenager who enlists a group of friends to hunt for a legendary treasure which is linked to his dad’s mysterious disappearance. With the fifth and final season on the way, this second batch of season four episodes sets everything up nicely – and it’s as big a hit as ever, scoring an audience of 8.6 million over the past week. Which suggests this one won’t be ‘outer’ the top 10 for a while… (Picture: Netflix)
