Our Review
The Lord's Day (2026) is a thriller series from Netflix. It is currently coming soon. It runs 1 season.
What The Lord's Day Is About
On the State Opening of Parliament, British spy Harry Jones finds himself inside the iconic building amidst a lockdown. As the siege escalates, loyalties are tested and selfless sacrifices are made, leading to a desperate fight for survival where not everyone will emerge alive. Can Harry use his skills and training to be the country’s saviour?
What to Expect When You Watch
The format keeps each instalment self-contained enough to drop into, spread across 1 season and it leans into its thriller roots while leaving room for the quieter character beats.
Performance-wise the series leans on Damson Idris to carry the emotional weight, with the rest of the ensemble filling out the world around them.
Cast and Creative Team
Damson Idris lead the cast.
Key roles include Damson Idris as Harry Jones.
Why It Stands Out
Fans of thriller have a clear reason to give this one a shot. It sits comfortably alongside Netflix’s other originals and it commits to its premise instead of hedging between tones.
Released in 2026 and carried by Netflix with the series still coming soon, it lands hardest with thriller viewers.
How The Lord's Day Compares
If The Lord's Day lands for you, the next stops are Breaking Bad, Death Note and The Expanse, which share its thriller lean.
Each of those sits at a different point on the same spectrum, so they make a natural follow-up once you finish the run here.

On the whole The Lord's Day is the kind of series that rewards a patient watch, with Damson Idris doing the heaviest lifting, a tone that stays true to its thriller roots, It has held up since 2026 and so if the premise sounds like your lane, the execution holds up.
The Bottom Line
The Lord's Day is a safe bet for anyone already inside the thriller lane and so there is little risk in starting it tonight.
Verdict: 7.5/10. Watch it if you want thriller you can settle into.
