Painkiller (Netflix)
My favourite was Painkiller. I gave it a try because of a teenage loyalty to Ferris Bueller and it featured Matthew Broderick, who plays the middle aged CEO of a failing drug company. I had limited knowledge of prescription drug addictions in the US and this dramatisation of real events was such compelling viewing it led me down a rabbit hole of research. It’s one of those shows that you recommend to everyone – and can’t stop thinking about. Sharon Giles, 52, Guildford
