How to watch 'Sweetpea' online and from anywhere – stream the comedy-crime drama
It's always the quiet ones. Or it certainly is in this case as mild-mannered Rhiannon goes on a blood-soaked rampage
Where to watch Sweetpea online
One minute she is being ignored - in the cornershop, at work, on the bus - and the next minute... well, you'll need to see it for yourself as Rhiannon experiences an awakening of truly frightening proportions and starts giving her "Kill List" some serious attention. Here's how to watch Sweetpea online now — and from anywhere with a VPN.
Final episodes: Thurs, October 10 |
US stream: Starz | Hulu (Starz add-on) |
Global streams: Crave (CA) | Sky Atlantic (UK) | Binge (AU) |
Ok, so she has some issues - her father's ill, boyfriend won't commit, work is a nightmare - but the lengths she eventually goes to in order to deal with this situation once she has reached boiling point can reasonably be described as extreme.
That she gets away with it is almost entirely due to the fact that she is female and has an innocent face at complete odds with what she is prepared to do with a very sharp knife. But everybody has a ying and yang right? A Jekyll and Hyde?
Not quite like Rhiannon who is soon liberated and empowered by her sick and twisted revenge plot and, if anything like the character in the book (by CJ Skuse), is only just getting started.
