How can I watch Handmaid's Take Season 4?

[Wainwriter]

I know the answer is "google it" but I really don't want any spoilers!

I was late to the game with the first 3 seasons and watched them on Amazon. I've since discovered that it might be coming to Channel 4, but can't find a date.

I've noticed there's a thread running (with a spoiler warning) so someone must be watching it! Or are these all non UK mumsnetters?

They are watching it through a VPN (I had a quick look at the thread further up.... don’t look though as there are spoilers!)

I have no idea how to do this so I’m going to wait.

It's started in Ireland last Thursday week so if you can access the RTE iPlayer (or the international version at least) you'll be able to check it out.

Its shaping up to be pretty action packed this year.

Good lord there's a S4? I will be rolling my eyes and shaking my head...whilst watching it every single week without fail.

This is a link someone posted on the other thread OP!

I tried to go down the VPN route but couldn't manage so I'm just sitting tight while I wait for it to come on cbannel4.

A friend of mind downloads them to a file sharing platform that they let us watch remotely. I'm not quite caught up yet though

Torrent it?

Thanks all. No sure about the whole vpn thing, so I guess I'll just have to be patient!

I'm watching on Australian streamed TV via a VPN which comes with my Internet security application. There are VPNs which have a free trial (such as Express VPN). There are also free VPNs but I couldn't find one which did Australia. I have a free one (Windscribe) which does Canada and USA but in both countries the Handmaid's Tale is on subscription TV and I didn't want to subscribe.

The link posted up thread was blocked on my laptop by my security app, I'd be wary of watching on that site.

Honestly a VPN is pretty simple to sort. Sign up for a free trial, you'll then have some sort of VPN app on your computer. There will be an obvious setting in it where you can turn on the VPN and change what country you appear to be in.

Why does Channel 4 do this? So bloody annoying. They must know very well that with a high-profile series like The Handmaid's Tale people like to discuss online, and would be very easy to accidentally see spoilers online.

If Ireland can get it in good time and synchronise with the US, why can't we?
Can only assume it makes it a lot cheaper for C4 or something. Maybe they should let another channel buy it, or Netflix.

Quite annoying the Uk is the very last to be able to watch it and i don't see why i have to download a VPN to access it. Bloody channel 4 should get their act together really and get it on the box. HULU has it but uk version doesn't have it grrrr. Guess we will just have to wait....

I think some people have bought a Hulu gift card and then watched it like that.

You can't watch HULU in the U.K. because it's American but you get around it via a gift card

Might try that thankyou

I’ve been watching it on CouchTuner. It’s technically illegal but nothing happens. There is a pretty pornographic add that plays every time you click something to watch but once you’re past that the quality is decent.

From the spoiler thread...

Just to add to this, once you have the VPN, if your VPN allows you to choose Australian servers, you DON'T need to subscribe to hulu to watch, you can watch free on the Australian SBS channel website.

I can't believe that Ireland's state tv, RTE (we have to pay s license fee and unlike the BBC there are ads) can get the series before Channel 4.

Can you access the RTEPlayer ?
If so, it's on the secondary channel, RTE2.

As always my heart is in my mouth watching. My heart races. Can't be good for my stress levels.

Where I've been watching it, a new episode is uploaded every week of season 4. Has the other 3 seasons on there too.
