Synopsis
Wanderlust (2018) is a BBC One series you can watch online on iFILM — six episodes about a long marriage that's run out of spark. Toni Collette leads as Joy, a therapist who wakes up after a cycling accident and realises she's stopped wanting her husband.
Joy and Alan decide not to split. They try something else: an open arrangement, each free to see other people. The plan immediately ripples outward — their teenage kids, Joy's patients, the neighbours, everyone on the street gets pulled into the fallout. Screenwriter Nick Payton Walker runs a dozen storylines without losing any of them.
Collette plays Joy as someone who knows the theory of relationships better than most people alive, and is genuinely at a loss in her own. The series is honest about the mess of long partnerships in a way few dramas manage. Stream Wanderlust online on iFILM.
