As a Brit, it used to be a simple flow: check Netflix, almost certainly on there, watch.
Now it's usually not on there, and checking JustWatch shows that it's unavailable in the UK (without paying to buy or 'lease' the content, usually for a similar price to the streaming service's monthly rate).
You can see why torrenting is on the rise again: a Netflix subscription just doesn't cut it anymore, and Hulu isn't available in the UK without a VPN.
