Fans of Top Boy: you might want to cancel all your weekend plans as series three lands on Netflix... TODAY.

Yes, the gritty crime drama will be returning to the streaming service just in time for a weekend binge.

Series one, which aired in 2011, followed the rise of local drug dealers Dushane and Sully, and the harsh world that they were living in, all set in London.
