From my post... Yes... And I'm not sure they have to sue in the US... If they are accused of any serious crimes then it will be relatively easy to sue in the US

The public figure debate will be interesting.

It could be argued, and I’m sure Netflix lawyers will, that the parents are public figures.

I don't think it's quite as simple as you think... Katy Holmes... Tom Cruise and others have win libel cases... And I'm fairly sure the mccanns could sue in the uk

What is all this talk of sueing Netflix??
"You can't reason with the unreasonable".

Wouldn't any hypothetical libel action have to be initiated against UK-based Pulse Films?

Hypothetically I suppose it would

You don't suppose Sonia Poulton could have anything to do with this, anyone?
