War is over, but the party’s just beginning for the women birthing Soho’s club scene in Bad Wolf’s acclaimed Dope Girls. You can stream all six episodes now for free on BBC iPlayer. Just keep reading for how to watch Dope Girls online, at home or abroad and with a VPN.
An intoxicating account of Soho’s emergent club scene, Dope Girls plunges viewers into a bacchanalian London celebrating the Armistice of the First World War. Alternately gritty and stylistically lyrical, the series centres on Kate Galloway (Julianne Nicholson), left destitute following a family tragedy, as she and bohemian best friend Billie (Umi Meyers) establish a highly lucrative empire of illegal underground clubs.
But their money-making schemes put them on a collision course with the law, as iron-willed police recruit Violet (Eliza Scanlen) goes undercover in Soho, while the dangerous Salucci family – presided over by matriarch Isabella (Geraldine James) – both help and hinder Kate’s clandestine business operation.
Captivating, gory, and boasting fascinating fictional accounts of real-life figures, this acclaimed drama is more than just “Peaky Blinders” with flappers rather than flat caps. It is, as the London Evening Standard wrote, “desperately addictive, seedy and glamorous” and almost certain to be “your newest obsession.”
