"Curfew", a six-part adaptation of "After Dark", Jayne Cowie's dystopian novel, sees all men subject to a nightly 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. curfew. The system seems to be working as intended, until a woman's badly beaten body is dumped in front of the Women’s Safety Centre. Here's how to watch "Curfew" online and from anywhere with a VPN.

Stream ‘Curfew’ online: date and streaming options

"Curfew" premieres in the U.K. on Thursday, October 10. There are 6 episodes in total.

• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free

Hard-boiled detective Pamela Green (Sarah Parish) is convinced that a man is responsible, but that would require him to have breached curfew by outsmarting the electronic tag system that underpins the Women’s Safety Act. However, with no evidence beyond a hunch, her superiors insist that the answer is more straightforward: the murderer must be a woman. 

One thing everyone can agree on is that taking the body to the Women’s Safety Centre was a moralistic statement — the only thing is, until they can find out who was behind the murder, it remains open to interpretation, an open goal that opportunists and politicians alike won't be passing up. Is the curfew fundamentally flawed, or just not strict enough?

Also starring Mandip Gill as Sarah, a worker at the local tagging centre, and Alexandra Burke as pro-curfew teacher Helen, read on and we'll show you how to watch "Curfew" online from anywhere.
