How to watch Generation Z online and for free – stream British apocalyptic comedy from anywhere

With blood around her mouth and accompanied by four old men, Cecily (Sue Johnston) leans on a tree in Generation Z.

How to watch Generation Z online

Intergenerational warfare is given a fresh and meaty lease of life in Ben Wheatley’s six-part black comedy Generation Z. When a military convoy drops its toxic load outside a retirement home, its elderly inhabitants develop an insatiable appetite for young flesh. Here's where to watch Generation Z online for free – from anywhere.

An allegory of Brexit and Covid, Generation Z sees the military collude with the government and media in an effort to cover the spill up, leaving Dambury's youth to fend for themselves.

As if survival wasn't difficult enough, schoolmates Charlie, Kelly, Steff and Finn are told in no uncertain terms that the unfolding apocalypse shouldn't distract from their A-Levels, and it falls on the gang to get to the heart of the mystery, while showing compassion to the geriatric horde that's hell-bent on destroying them.

Starring Anita Dobson and Robert Lindsay, read on as we explain how to watch Generation Z from anywhere in the world.
