It’s time to say goodbye to the Spanish show that warmed its way to millions of hearts a little over four years ago. La Casa De Papel bows out with the second volume of part 5, which consists of 5 episodes. With the Professor mysteriously away from comms and the building still surrounded by police, the heist crew argues over how to escape and what to do with all the gold. This final lap promises to be a rollercoaster, and it will be the perfect entertainment this weekend. Will Alicia hand the Professor over to the police? Will the crew escape or die? These and many more mysteries will be put to bed in the tumultuous finale. It debuted on Netflix on 3 December 2021.
