Dead and Buried asks viewer what they would do if they bumped into the man who had been convicted of murdering their brother 20 years previously. Would it matter that he had turned his life round and become a success?
Here's where to watch Dead and Buried online from anywhere and potentially for free.
These are the questions Cathy (played by Annabel Scholey) faces in four-part BBC Northern Ireland TV drama Dead and Buried, written by novelist Colin Bateman, the man behind Murphy's Law.
Cathy hits the internet, sees that he is a success and resents him for it – and the chances denied her brother. Her response? Instigates a clandestine relationship with the man she despises most in the world, in an effort to derail Micheal's life through a campaign of psychological warfare.
But as her obsession grows, dark fantasies of revenge and reality blur.
This sounds like a nerve-jangling drama that should have you hooked. Read on as we explain how to watch Dead and Buried (2024) from anywhere in the world.
