Maybe about 14 years since I've watched an English movie. The last English movie i watched was "2012" sometime in 2009 when it was released.

70% of the earth is covered in water. Almost 0% of that water is carbonated.
Therefore the earth is basically flat!

My understanding is that flat-earthers (at the original level) simply state that you shouldn't believe what you haven't seen for yourself.
I haven't seen Australia, yet I have seen no proof against it either.
It appears that most "flat-earthers" today are not adhering to the original precepts of the founders.
For example, have they ever seen an "Australian" being paid by NASA? I think not.

Do you think they would pay me if I sent an invoice?

They've probably seen it on the 'net. Doesn't that count?

Maybe there are honest flatearthers, most likely in the US of A or in England (where the society was first established). The Norwegian chapter is a pronounced parody, very much like the pastafarians ("Church of the flying spaghetti monster"). They deliberately present the most ridiculous view, very much tongue-in-cheek, not at all trying to hide it.
Has Wikipedia had a spring clean, throwing out flat earth stuff? I was convinced that last time I looked, the Flat Earth Society had its own Wikipedia page, not just a section in a page whose main purpose is to debunk it. I remember it having a link to Norwegian Wikipedia, where the Norwegian chapter was presented. That may be a couple of years ago. Now, I find only small traces; the Norwegian chapter isn't mentioned at all.
For the Norwegian chapter, no debunking was required - it stood out as a perfect debunker themselves. If you were a true flat earth believer, you would feel very uncomfortable in the Norwegian chapter 
And I am still waiting for the first mountain climbing group to take the name 'Steep Earth Society'

Where the evidence you need is what?

Contrariwise, the OP says only "Flat Earthers" in general, not one particular sect, and I responded concerning they who can be traced back to the 1800s.

That is not what I see. Though it does seem that Rowbotham wasn't above throwing some of that in after the fact, it doesn't appear to be the origin of his concept. From what I can tell, Rowbotham should not have put much stock into biblical references, but it's not like he was terribly consistent overall.
Others who followed him seem to have had a greater or lesser leaning in that direction.
Bearing mind that Youtube and Wikipedia may not be the most accurate depictions of any particular subject.

The Flat Earth Society home page lists London as the home location.
Contact :: The Flat Earth Society[^]
And Birmingham is just a short distance from there.
There are multiple threads on the the that site that reference Birmingham.
The above is relevant because the original link in the OP was referencing a follow on from a conference that was held in Birmingham in 2018.
Although true that I can't find anything specific that says it was promoted and put on by some other group for me it certainly seems likely that it was an event that was either directly put together by the Flat Earth Society or by members that belong to them.
