Jack has supposedly moved on from his murky past of pickpocketing people in the streets and alleys of London and nowadays calls Australia home, where he is making a new life for himself as a (relatively) respectable surgeon.
But, despite this career change, Hawkins can't help but be lured in by card games, forever looking at ways to make an extra buck.
With romance in the air in the shape of Maia Mitchell's Lady Belle, all seems to be going well for Jack. Of course, his streak of good luck doesn't last, and when he's cheated out of a fortune at cards, Hawkins is forced to consider returning to his old ways... or risk losing one of his hands.
To add further to his troubles, Jack's world is rocked by the arrival of his old, forever dodgy mentor, Fagin (David Thewlis). Sounds good, eh? Read on and we'll show you how to watch The Artful Dodger online from anywhere.

Watch The Artful Dodger from anywhere with a VPN
You can watch The Artful Dodger on any of the streaming services above by using a VPN – no matter where you are in the world!
Normally a streaming service will know where you are trying to tune in from and block you if you're not in the right country but a Virtual Private Network (VPN) is an app that hides your location. That means you can access your usual sports and entertainment services even while you're traveling abroad.
Our favorite VPN is ExpressVPN, which is the No. 1-rated VPN in the world right now according to our sister site, TechRadar.
How to use a VPN to watch any stream
- Download the app at ExpressVPN
- Choose the location of the streaming service you want to watch (UK, US, etc)
- Navigate to the streaming service and start watching!
