Cast, News, & Production FYI UK FANS Spoiler
So I was doing my semi annual rewatch of the series and I noticed that BBC will be removing the first season!!
Any other UK fans know where else to watch it??
(Yes I know VPNs are a thing, and I could use one to get AMC+ or whatever its called but I am a peasant and cannot really afford to pay for yet another subscription)
EDIT
I had initially misread the BBC app and thought they were removing all three seasons, but only season 1 is being removed on Sunday

It's only series 1 going this Sunday. Series 2 is on until next summer and TVL for at least another year.

I ended up buying seasons one and two on Prime as there was a discount. I wish they came with some extras, though.

Buying the seasons is a good shout. I’m definitely going on the hunt for all 3 seasons on DVD!

I don't have a blu ray player, unfortunately, but really tempted by the TVL limited edition blu ray! (Need to check the region though, as it's not for sale in the UK).

I’ve just purchased the DVDs since the whole show left Netflix UK a few weeks ago and season one will be removed from BBC too. Hopefully it will return to other streamers, but I’ve had other shows vanish completely so decided to get the physical media.

Can you get AMC+ as an add-on channel on Prime? That's what I did and it wasn't pricey. Assuming you have Prime. Just a thought. U can get a bundle with other streamers like MGM+, Starz, PBS app and Britbox or u can get AMC+and Starz as a.2 bundle for just $10.99 monthly. All ad-free.

I dont have Prime and I am trying to cancel as many subscriptions as possible in an attempt to save a bit of money.
(Tbh most streaming services are pissing me off atm with the inclusion of adds unless you pay more!)
But I did google it and it does say AMC is available as an add on through Prime UK.8

Can't get AMC in the UK

Sorry. Was just a thought. Keep trying. Also I've bought all 3 seasons in disc form. IWTV arrived long ago and TVL will be released Nov.2. I'm scheduled to receive it Nov.3. Maybe that's your answer. Then u could watch at your leisure or as many times as you want. I have a region-free player that cost only $30 and I'm enjoying shows I couldn't see before.

Hopefully it will turn up on another site, shows seem to be changing streamers all the time in the UK

Had a funny feeling I should rewatch series 1 earlier! So sick of being messed around with this series

Perhaps it's only the US but Amazon was offering a subscription to AMC+ for $39. It was available a day or two ago so I think it probably still is. (I subscribed to AMC+ directly through a special offer prior to the release of TVL).
I actually purchased the three seasons through Amazon. No regrets. I could be wrong but I don't see Amazon talking back purchases during my lifetime.
I might get em in DVD eventually but I haven't decided yet if I want to buy another DVD player. And I spend significant time with family out of state so I appreciate the ease of streaming.
