Everything British Worth Streaming in March 2025

Weather-wise, March roars in like a lion, but when it comes to television, the first month of spring is traditionally a slow starter. There's a lot of reasons the TV schedule tends to shake out that way — the Academy Awards usually eats up the first or second weekend of the month; then there's spring break for schools and families, which tends to occur in March, as do the major religious holidays of Easter, Passover, and Eid. Over at PBS, the first half of March is traditionally pledge time; basketball is king for broadcast networks who depend on live sports.

This is reflected in the March offerings arriving for 2025. However, unlike previous years, there's not really a dead zone in early March; instead, we have a lot of British TV coming from a small number of streaming services. Acorn TV and BritBox arrive heavily armed to fight for viewership in the coming month, however, the only competition they'll find outside of each other is Netflix, which only competes in the number of entries due to including "European period dramas" along with the usual British debuts.

BritBox and Acorn TV also know that their competition this month isn't really from places like Paramount+ or Hulu, at least not this month, with Wolf Hall gearing up to return to PBS after a decade's absence. Let's run down what the non-PBS streamers bring to the table for March before Henry and Cromwell's fight to the death becomes the only thing we care about outside of Severence.
