Everything British Worth Streaming in April 2024
April has rolled in, and spring is officially here. Due to the yearly shifts in the calendar, Easter Monday and April Fools Day are one and the same, so there's no week off from debuts for holidays and school breaks. Instead, this month sees entire streaming services sitting out the month, relying on the shows that debuted in March to see them through, or focusing on American-made fare. However, the streaming services that bring Anglophiles British television really are coming correct, with multiple offerings from Acorn TV, BritBox, and Netflix filling the gaps left by Apple TV+, Paramount+, and Prime Video not showing up this month.
April is also the month when Earth Day lands, and that absolutely means there are nature specials on the way to celebrate the planet. Though David Attenborough's Mammals won't be arriving stateside until the summer, Planet Earth III is still available to watch on AMC+, and other streamers have new British-produced nature films and series for viewers to watch as well.
All that, and we have a brand new streaming service officially joining the lineup as Tubi's PR department finally starts getting the announcements for original debuts out far enough ahead of time to make our what-to-watch lists. Welcome!
