Across the best streaming services in Australia, it can be difficult for niche services to make their mark among behemoths like Disney Plus, Apple TV Plus and Netflix. Depending on your viewing habits, though, BritBox might just be your favourite streaming service – and it's currently cheaper than ever.

Right now, you can grab three months of BritBox for just AU$10 – that's only AU$3.29p/m, and a 66% discount on the regular subscription cost – letting you watch the best Britain has to offer for cheap.

The home of British TV might lead you to think you'll only be watching lifestyle baking and gardening shows, scenic documentaries and classics like Blackadder, Keeping Up Appearances and Dad's Army, but BritBox offers more than that. There's serious crime dramas, laugh-out-loud comedies and everything in between – but don't dilly dally. This deal is running from January 10 to 11:59PM AEDT on the 19th. So, whether you're skint and need entertainment or want to rewatch an old favourite, this BritBox deal is for you.

Line of Duty

Line of Duty

With a 8.7/10 rating on IMDB and 96% on Rotten Tomatoes, Line of Duty is one of the best of its kind. Wrapping up in 2021, all six seasons of this police crime and serial drama are available on BritBox.

Whether you love Mathew Macfayden for his performance as Tom Wambsgans in Succession, or as Mr. Darcy in Pride & Prejudice, this is a must-watch. A biographical comedy drama based on the true story of John Stonehouse, famous for the unsuccessful faking of his own death in 1974.

A Spy Among Friends

A Spy Among Friends

If you like spy thrillers, A Spy Among Friends stars Guy Pierce as Kim Philby – perhaps the most infamous spy of all time.

Damian Lewis stars as Nicholas Elliot, who is left shattered when he learns his close friend and colleague had been working as a double agent and has defected to the Soviet Union.

Death in Paradise

Death in Paradise

Want something a little less serious, but still murdery? Death in Paradise is what we call a cosy mystery – a comedy whodunnit that follows a Detective Inspector who is transferred from London to the island of Saint Marie in the Caribbean, solving heinous crimes in cosy ways.
