Google has released its results for its Year in Search 2021.<\/p>\n

The search engine has shed a light on the most-searched-for series and films in the United Kingdom<\/a> and on a global level.<\/a><\/p>\n

Unsurprisingly, Netflix breakout hit Squid Game<\/a> topped the search for television series, followed by fellow Netflix hit Bridgerton<\/a>, which premiered in 2020.<\/p>\n

BBC drama series The Serpent<\/a> comes third, followed by crime hit Line of Duty<\/a>, and then ITV2 reality series Love Island<\/a> in fifth place.<\/p>\n

Rounding out the top 10 is spooky Netflix thriller Behind Her Eyes<\/a>, Channel 4\u2019s emotional drama It\u2019s A Sin<\/a>, the hard-hitting ITV crime drama Pembrokeshire Murders<\/a>, the BBC submarine thriller Vigil<\/a>, and finally, the much-anticipated Friends Reunion, which aired on Sky and NOW in the UK.<\/a><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in terms of movies, it was the all-star adaptation of sci-fi classic Dune<\/a> that came out as the most-searched-for film release.<\/p>\n

\""Dune\"<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>

The Timoth\u00e9e\u00a0Chalamet-led epic beat the likes of Marvel films Black Widow<\/a> and Eternals<\/a>, which take the second and third spots.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s little wonder then that a sequel film for Dune, titled Dune: Part Two<\/a> (naturally), is on the way in 2023.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, James Bond film No Time to Die<\/a> came in fourth place, followed by Netflix films Red Notice<\/a> and Army of the Dead<\/a>, then Marvel\u2019s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings<\/a> takes seventh place.<\/p>\n

Rounding out the top 10 films are Halloween Kills<\/a>, Suicide Squad<\/a> and Jungle Cruise.<\/a><\/p>\n
