A British courtroom drama that features plenty of familiar faces is getting a new UK streaming home in just a few days.<\/p>\n

ITV series The Jury<\/a> first aired in 2002 and returned for a second series in 2011, making history as the first to ever be allowed to film in the Old Bailey.<\/p>\n

The two series are unconnected apart from the setting, and the fact they both place a heavy focus on the members of the jury, as opposed to the defendant and prosecution.<\/p>\n

The show will be coming to Netflix on Tuesday, 22 July, but if you don’t want to wait, there’s another option.<\/p>\n

Both seasons are available to stream on ITVX now, with the base tier being free with ads, and the Premium tier costing \u00a35.99 a month\/\u00a359.99 a year without ads.<\/p>\n

A lot of the reviews from fans on IMDB<\/a> are from way before Gerard Butler had his proper breakout moment in 2007’s 300 (although he had appeared in a few projects by that point).<\/p>\n

Even though he wasn’t a major name by that point, plenty of those old reviews praised Butler’s performance as recovering alcoholic Johnnie, with fans calling him “exceptionally convincing”, “captivating”, and “a standout – so intense at times you quit breathing”.<\/p>\n

The Jury is available now on ITVX and will be added to Netflix on Tuesday, 22 July.<\/p>\n
