September is now in full swing, and Netflix has been keeping us stocked with a bundle of must-watch films and TV shows just in time for those cosy autumnal nights in.

We have a terrifying new horror series to sink our teeth into, thanks to Midnight Mass, as well as new seasons of Money Heist, Sex Education, and Dear White People. And there’s also a documentary or two in the mix, as well as the odd slushy romcom (because, let’s face it, we can always do with another slushy romcom). 

With all that to enjoy and more, here’s our pick of what’s new on Netflix this month.

Please note that this article will be updated regularly to include new titles.
