Despite being a spin off from a previous series, this film stands on its own as a hilarious comedy about the inner workings of BritishGov.

Hilarious political satire by the creators of The Thick of It and Veep. Not for those who dislike foul language.

The Raid
Deep in the heart of Jakarta's slums lies an impenetrable safe house for the world's most dangerous killers and gangsters.

But when a chance encounter with a spotter blows their cover and news of their assault reaches the drug lord, the building's lights are cut and all the exits blocked. Stranded on the sixth floor with no way out, the unit must fight their way through the city's worst to survive their mission. Starring Indonesian martial arts sensation Iko Uwais.
