Terror drama with a chilling basis in fact

-

This tense, gritty Swedish thriller smashed viewing records when made available there. A charismati­c Isis recruiter is grooming vulnerable young girls in Sweden to become wives for Islamist fanatics. In Raqqa, Syria, the wife of an Isis thug wants out and is trying to negotiate a safe exit for her and her baby with Swedish Intelligen­ce by gathering informatio­n on a terrorist attack in Stockholm. Depressing­ly, the show’s creator got the idea after seeing pictures of the Bethnal Green three, teenagers who left Britain to join Isis. Netflix, available now
