Netflix viewers turn off 'utterly stupid' new thriller over 'ridiculous' plot twist

Inside Man, a BBC drama that's recently been added to Netflix, has left many viewers grabbing at their remote control to 'switch off' because of 'ridiculous' storylines. Created by Sherlock and Doctor Who writer, Steven Moffat, Inside Man is a four-part thriller which surrounds a prisoner on death row in the US.

The inmate is played by Stanley Tucci, while David Tennant is a vicar in a 'quiet English town' and Dolly Wells plays a maths teacher trapped inside a cellar. While seemingly all unrelated, the characters cross paths in the "most unexpected way", the BBC wrote on its initial release.

Describing his role in Inside Man, Tennant told the BBC: "From my character's point of view, it's a story about a man who, in pursuit of doing the right thing, makes a series of catastrophically bad decisions". The series has some incredible twists and turns, but seems to have annoyed viewers who have taken to Twitter to complain after watching.
