A 'flawless' Netflix crime thriller binge-watched by 100 million people has viewers 'hooked just five minutes into the first episode'.
French crime drama Lupin first aired in 2021 and stars Omar Sy, Ludivine Sagnier and Clotilde Hesme.
The series sees Assane Diop (Sy) take inspiration from the tale of fictional Arsène Lupin and becomes a thief.
He 'sets out to avenge his father for an injustice inflicted by a wealthy family,' according to the synopsis.
Created by George Kay and François Uzan, Lupin has reportedly been streamed a huge 99,500,000 times since it first hit Netflix and fans have raved about it over the years.

So far, there has been three seasons of the drama and it was nominated for the Golden Globes in 2022, as well as an Emmy.
There is a fourth season on the way and filming has already commenced in Paris, according to Tudum.
Some viewers have complimented the show over the years on X and said: 'Lupin on Netflix - A solid 10/10. Watch it.';
'I just finished Lupin a series on Netflix! It was good and kept your mind in the series.';
'Y'all need to see the series LUPIN on Netflix. My kind of movie.'
According to Unilad, one fan penned: 'I binged watch first part last night, hooked from the very first 5 minutes. This series is going to be better than Ocean's 12, 13 and 8 combined.'
While another reportedly said: 'Loved this Series. Binged watched the entire series one. Can't wait for series two. Dubbed in English and still was flawless.'
Despite Lupin's whopping 98% score on Rotten Tomatoes, not everyone has been impressed with the show.
One viewer wrote on the review site: 'Omar Sy as Lupin is charming, but the plot twists are so unrealistic... and sometimes just plain stupid.
'It felt like it had potential because the production values are so good. But the storylines are ridiculous.'

How will this summer's transfer activity impact Dream Team in 2025/26?
HARDCORE Dream Team managers know that it's never too early to start planning. The dust has only just settled on the 2024/25 campaign but nothing drums up excitement for next season like the transfer window. Several deals concerning Premier League clubs have already been complete and the rumour mill promises many more fresh faces in the coming months. So how will this summer's transfer activity impact Dream Team in 2025/26? Matheus Cunha signed for Manchester United on June 1st and it will be interesting to see how popular he will be come Gameweek 1. The Brazilian forward averaged 8.2 points-per-game this season, a rate only bettered by Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland, but his ownership stayed low (approximately 3%) throughout, not helped by some disciplinary issues. For all the Red Devils' problems in recent years, they remain one of the biggest and most supported clubs in the world. There's every chance Cunha will go from one of Dream Team's most underrated assets to one of the most selected individuals in the game. The 26-year-old may be joined at Old Trafford by Bryan Mbeumo. 6 The Cameroon international was nothing short of outstanding this season; he banked 337 points via 20 goals and 10 assists. Only Bruno Fernandes and Cole Palmer amassed more points among midfielders. However, Dream Team bosses will be aware that Man United have not qualified for Europe and so their players will have a relaxed schedule compared to counterparts at Liverpool, Arsenal, Newcastle, etc. Speaking of the newly-crowned champions, the Reds wasted no time in replacing Trent Alexander-Arnold with Jeremie Frimpong. There aren't many defenders more attack-minded than Real Madrid's new Galactico but the Dutch wing-back is one of them. A key player for Bayer Leverkusen under Xabi Alonso, Frimpong registered 63 goal involvements over the last three seasons! Whether he will be Liverpool's starting right-back in a back four remains to be seen but his attacking pedigree is likely to make him a popular man from the get-go. Arne Slot may acquire another Leverkusen gem in Florian Wirtz, if an astronomical fee can be agreed. The 22-year-old has racked up goals and assists for fun in the last two years and gaffers didn't shy away from backing him in Dream Team Euros last summer, when he impressed in tandem with Jamal Musiala for Germany. Adding a natural talent like Wirtz to this successful Liverpool team would certainly be a tempting prospect but he is likely to warrant a high starting price for Gameweek 1 if the transfer happens. Much like with Alexander-Arnold, Dream Team managers will be sad to see Kevin De Bruyne go - both players have provided lorry-loads of points in recent years. It will be very interesting to see what size waves a new-look Manchester City midfield will make in 2025/26. 6 If rumours are to be believed, Tijani Reijnders is on his way from Milan with Lyon winger Rayan Cherki said to be another target for Pep Guardiola. The former is an all-rounder in the middle of the park who has the attributes to be a keen bonus point collector while the latter is very much a final-third threat - he's coming off 32 goal involvements in 2024/25. Elsewhere, Liam Delap's switch to Chelsea is an intriguing one. The 22-year-old scored 12 goals in the top flight this term, a decent effort as the spearhead of an Ipswich outfit not equipped for the brutal demands of the Premier League. He can expect plenty more service at Stamford Bridge as the Blues ranked third for shots and xG in the league. Add in European commitments and Delap could score plenty but only if he establishes himself as the regular starting striker, which isn't guaranteed at this stage. 6 Gaffers may be spoiled for choice up top if Benjamin Sesko and/or Viktor Gyokeres arrive on these shores. Arsenal are keen on a proper No9 while Liverpool and Man United may also be interested in more firepower, depending on their other business. Gyokeres in particular has been obscenely prolific for Sporting CP having scored 97 goals in all competitions across the last two seasons! Dream Team managers will have new options between the sticks too. Caoimhin Kelleher will be Brentford's first-choice goalkeeper next season following his move from Anfield, with Mark Flekken having gone to Leverkusen. The Irishman averaged an impressive 5.3 points-per-game this season when Alisson was unavailable. He may be a busy boy in West London as Flekken was forced to make more saves (159) than anyone else this term. 6 A stone's throw away, Mike Maignan is being linked with a transfer to Chelsea. Enzo Maresca is desperate for a reliable keeper and France's No1 may fit the bill. Needless to say, we will take a closer look at the most notable new arrivals closer to the Gameweek 1 deadline.

Reality star reveals baby's adorable name after ‘brutal and overwhelming' first week as a mum
REALITY star Caggie Dunlop has revealed the name of her newborn daughter after becoming a mum for the first time. But the Made In Chelsea OG has also been frank with fans about her first week of motherhood, describing it as "brutal". 6 Caggie, 35, has admitted there has been plenty of tears after her birth to her daughter did not go according to plan. She also confirmed she and her boyfriend, whose name she is yet to share, have decided to call their daughter Lola Violet Liddell. Caggie had to stay in hospital for two days following Lola's birth and said she found life tough once they had returned home. Thankfully, the honest new mum has admitted things have started to improve. Caggie made her candid admission alongside a sweet photograph of herself and her boyfriend as they left hospital with Lola Violet. She described their baby girl as "tiny, but oh so mighty". Caggie wrote: "It's been a tender few days of sleepless nights and deep healing - physically, emotionally, psychologically. "Tears of overwhelming joy and love but also of exhaustion. "The hormone crash alone is enough to floor you, but then there's the spiritual expansion that is so great it takes your breath away. "In these first moments of motherhood, I've struggled to find words that truly capture it — but the one I come back to most is otherworldly." Crediting her team of midwives, Caggie continued: "My birth didn't go the way I'd planned but I believe I had the birth I was meant to have. "I was called to face my deepest fears - and divinely, I was graced with the most incredible midwives who held me through every moment. "They made me feel safe, I trusted them. I could cry just thinking about them now as they were real life angels that made would could have been a gruelling birth experience into an overall positive one. "This love is an all consuming and debilitating kind that brings you to your knees. I close my eyes and see her, I dream of her. I have nightmares of worry and confusion thinking I've lost her or imagined her. "I wake moments before she stirs to feed or cry. I'm not quite sure what I've become, but I know I'm not the same. "I think with the anxiety comes instinct, and the former gets a little less sharp and spikey each day." Caggie described the feeling of leaving hospital as "surreal and dreamlike". She has called the first five days of motherhood as "brutal", but added: "I feel like she is settling now which allows me to sleep more than 1 hour in a row! "And the cuddles are just the greatest thing. Trying to soak it all in, go easy on myself and remain in our new born bubble, I know it won't last forever." Caggie is a Made In Chelsea OG and starred in the E4 show for three series. She and her boyfriend discovered they were expecting their first child together in September but held off until February to announce their happy news. Caggie confirmed she had given birth earlier this week alongside some photographs that were taken during her pregnancy. "The initiation into motherhood has been unlike anything I could have imagined," she admitted at the time. "I'm just trying to keep my head above water. I'll share more in the coming days, but for now, we're deep in the 'newborn trenches,' as they say." 6 6 6
