Last Minute Prime Day Deals On British Streaming Services: Save On Britbox, Acorn, more

Perhaps Taylor Swift said it best when she said, “Home is where the heart is, but God, I love the English.”

Gone are the days where American audiences found it nearly impossible to watch anything found on UK television — in the age of streaming, pretty much anything is possible.

Americans who want to watch shows directly from the UK or Brits living across the pond finally have a solution in the form of not one, not two, but three separate streaming services chock full of cozy mysteries, costume dramas, game shows, comedies, and more British TV goodness.

And the best news of all? Right now, in the waning hours of Prime Day, Amazon Prime members can subscribe to Acorn TV, BritBox, and Masterpiece through Prime Video Channels for just $1/month per service for your first two months.

A deal that good can’t last for too long, right? That’s right.

You’ll have to take advantage of these offers tonight before they disappear forever… or at least until next July.

Below, we’ve broken down all three services, including what kind of viewer they’re best for, and how to subscribe with the special offer. Consider this your one-stop shop as far as British streaming services go.

• If you love mysteries… consider Acorn TV

  Though Acorn TV has a big catalog that covers all the genres, where do they really shine? Mysteries.

  Cozy mystery, period mystery, dramatic mystery, comedic mystery, crime drama — Acorn TV has them all.

  Whether you enjoy a classic like Midsomer Murders, want to catch up on new shows like Happy Valley, or find new favorites in the form of Acorn TV originals like Agatha Raisin, you’ll be entertained for way more than two months with all that Acorn TV has to offer.

• If you’re more of a well-rounded streamer… consider BritBox

  Two of the biggest broadcasters in Britain (BBC and ITV) teamed up to create BritBox, which has one of the largest collections of British media on the internet.

  Of course it also has mysteries — it’s a British streaming service, after all — but BritBox’s Now section is where the service really shines. Subscribers are able to watch the latest episodes of a bunch of daily shows just hours after they air in England.

  These include soaps like Coronation Street, EastEnders, Doctors, and Emmerdale; news programs like Good Morning Britain; chat shows like The Jonathan Ross Show; and panel game shows like Question Time.

  Like Acorn TV, they also have a library of original series starring actors like Succession‘s Matthew Macfadyen, Will Poulter (who was recently seen being hot in Season 2 of The Bear), and David Tennant.

• If period/costume drama is your thing… consider Masterpiece

  Masterpiece from PBS also has a little bit of everything, but the linear channel (and, by extension, the streaming service) airs the latest costume dramas to come out of England, in addition to popular mystery series like Broadchurch and Grantchester.

  Just this year, Masterpiece aired the final season of the Jane Austen adaptation Sanditon, a new adaptation of Henry Fielding’s Tom Jones, and the 12th season of Call the Midwife. That’s in addition to other period dramas like Marie Antoinette and All Creatures Great and Small.
