Netflix contains a plethora of movies and TV shows that subscribers will be binge-watching throughout the festive period.

However, a whole lot of them are being taken off the service this December, so people might want to take note in case there any of the films and TV shows being dropped are on their to-watch list.

Even though Christmas is just around the corner, Bad Santa 2 will be bowing out from the service, alongside other movies such as The Danish Girl and the 1980s adaptation of Dune.

On the TV front, all five seasons of Merlin will no longer be available to watch on the platform in the near future, nor will 2018’s RuPaul’s Drag Race Holi-Slay Spectacular.

What’s On Netflix compiled a list of everything being removed from the service, so here’s what you need to know.
