Harlots (Seasons 1–3)

Harlots (2017) is a British-American period drama you can watch online on iFILM. London, 18th century: Margaret Wells (Samantha Morton) runs a brothel and fights to keep her daughters from the same fate — or at least to place them in a better house. Her enemy is Lydia Quigley (Lesley Manville), a genteel madam with money, connections, and no intention of yielding ground.

The elder daughter Charlotte (Jessica Brown-Findlay) is already in the trade; the younger one Margaret is still trying to shelter. Written by Moira Buffini for ITV Encore and Hulu, the series is less interested in corsets and candlelight than in the economics of survival — how women with no legal standing still found ways to negotiate power.
