How it spread

Trace the origin

Netflix released the series on March 13. Reviews, social discussion and paid parenting ads accompanied its rise; Wikipedia attention peaked in late March. It topped UK TV ratings, entered Parliament's debate and became a school teaching resource.

Observed peak within the documented measurement window; not an all-time maximum. Dates use the stated precision; chart positions are date anchors.
