What is new on Netflix UK in July 2020?
The Kissing Booth 2
Elle Evans (Joey King) just had the most romantic summer of her life with her reformed bad-boy boyfriend Noah Flynn (Jacob Elordi). But now Noah is off to Harvard, and Elle heads back to high school for her senior year.
She’ll have to juggle a long-distance relationship, getting into her dream college with her best friend Lee (Joel Courtney), and the complications brought on by a close friendship with a handsome, charismatic new classmate named Marco (Taylor Zakhar Perez).
When Noah grows close to a seemingly-perfect college girl (Maisie Richardson-Sellers), Elle will have to decide how much she trusts him and to whom her heart truly belongs.
What will be released on Netflix in July 2020?
Unsolved Mysteries (Season 1)
True crime lovers will be excited for the release of Netflix’s new docu-series Unsolved Mysteries. Every episode will focus on one mystery that has been left unsolved. It is produced by 21 Laps Entertainment, who were behind Stranger Things.
Cable Girls (Season 5B)
Fans will be sad to see the end of Spanish series Cable Girls. The period drama, set in 1920s Madrid, follows four women at the National Telephone Company as they manage romance, friendship and the modern workplace. Actresses Blanca Suárez, Maggie Civantos, Nadia de Santiago, Ana Fernández and Ana Polvorosa are fantastic and the show has had a very successful run on Netflix.
The Baby-Sitters Club
The series follows a group of girlfriends and their homegrown babysitting business.
It is based on Ann M. Martin’s famous books.
Netflix announced in 2019 that they would be adapting the books for TV in a series starring Alicia Silverstone. There has been a 1995 film version of the books made already, but Netflix is planning a reboot.
