While the show is a HBO / Sky co-production, Sky's seemingly blanket deal to show anything with HBO's stamp on it first in the UK doesn't appear to apply here.

Instead, you can now watch We Are Who We Are FREE in the UK using the BBC iPlayer streaming service, where all episodes are now available (you should be in possession of a valid TV licensing before signing up for this 100% free-to-use service).

For those who prefer a linear TV experience, BBC One is also airing episodes late Tuesday nights through mid-December (times vary but are generally around 10.45pm or 11.45pm GMT - and there are a number of regional variations in Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. You can find the show's complete upcoming broadcast schedule here). 

Not in the UK? You can still watch We Are Who We Are on iPlayer just like you would at home - just try using a VPN as per our guide above.

Devices compatible with HBO Max include iPhone and Android devices, Apple and Samsung TVs, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles, Chromecast, and laptops and PCs. I
