On Wednesday, a Netflix spokesperson said, “We’re spending over $1 billion (736 million pounds) this year in the UK on new, locally made films, series and documentaries, helping to create thousands of jobs and showcase British storytelling at its best.”
This move comes as Britain recently entered another lockdown due to an increasing threat from the latest coronavirus variant, as individuals remain at home once again and opt for entertainment video streaming platforms.
