How to watch 'The Road Trip' online — stream the Beth O'Leary TV adaptation from anywhere
Exes Addie and Dylan are forced to share a ride to an overseas wedding
From the makers of "The Flatshare" comes six-part romantic comedy "The Road Trip", another Beth O'Leary adaptation draped in millennial angst. When Addie (Emma Appleton) and her ex Dylan (Laurie Davidson) are forced to share an unbearably awkward ride to a mutual friend's wedding in Spain, there's no avoiding the elephant in the campervan. Come to think of it, why did they break up?
Here's how to watch "The Road Trip" from anywhere with a VPN.
"The Road Trip" premieres on Thursday, December 26. There are 6 episodes in total.

A holiday fling two years ago shouldn't stir up this much resentment, unless — shock horror — they still harbor feelings for each other. Only, unpicking that particular scab would be so much easier if they weren't also sharing the campervan with Addie's sister Deb (Isabella Laughland), Dylan's combative best friend Marcus (David Jonsson), and Rodney (Angus Imrie), an irritating wedding guest who's just there for the lift.
Addie and Marcus are grimly determined to not mend fences, and a sequence of flashbacks shed light on why. Deb, meanwhile, is sympathetic to both her sister and Dylan, though the lay of the land changes when she finds out it was Addie who did the ditching. Two years on, Dylan's still waiting for an explanation, but it isn't forthcoming.
The journey itself is as hazard-strewn as the conversation, so read on and we'll show you where to watch "The Road Trip" online from anywhere.
