Adolescence is on track to break another big record after amassing a huge amount of viewers in its first two weeks.
The acclaimed new drama from Stephen Graham and Jack Thorne was released earlier this month, and follows the story of a 13-year-old boy accused of the murder of a female classmate.
Netflix has now confirmed that in its second week of release, the show has taken in 66.3 million views, making it the most-watched UK title ever on Netflix.
It comes after Adolescence recently made history as the first streaming show to top the UK's weekly TV ratings, beating traditional broadcast series like Death in Paradise and The Apprentice.
The show's first episode was watched by 6.45 million people in its first seven days, ahead of the record-breaking Fool Me Once's number in its own debut week, also landing the biggest audience for a streaming TV show in the UK in one week.

Thorne previously opened up about the show's unique style, with each episode shot in one single take, explaining to DS that it "forces you to be partial".
"What you can't do is tell the whole story, you can only tell bits of the story," he said. "You can only look one way for an hour, and then you have to stop looking. And that thing of the unblinking eye forces you into complexity, and hopefully forces the audience into complexity."
Adolescence is available on Netflix now.
