TV-14Season 5
Synopsis
The Brokenwood Mysteries (2014), Season 5 is four more feature-length cases to watch online on iFILM, opening at the local A&P farm show where the fun fades fast.
Between the shearing and the sideshow rides, a body turns up. Then a hen party on a cruise boat with a pro tennis player aboard, a middle-aged cyclist who never makes it down the mountain, and a derelict asylum, Brokenwood Downes, that the local teenagers should have left alone. Shepherd and Sims pick the truth out of small-town noise.
By its fifth year the show has its rhythm down — grim and funny in equal measure, with a cast that plays like a long-married crew. Stream The Brokenwood Mysteries Season 5 online on iFILM.

S5·E1Scared To Death
It's the annual Brokenwood A&P show, time for that special kind of Kiwi carnival! Amidst the shearing displays, the ‘Calf Day' competition and wood chopping, is the usual assortment of fun rides and fairground attractions. The sun is shining on happy family entertainment and ever popular this year is the shonky old Ghost Train.
S5·E2Bride Not To Be
The Cream Boat is a charming vessel that chugs its way up the scenic Brokenwood waterways. It carries sightseers and Christmas parties and often Hen Parties. Professional tennis player, Ophelia Marley, is one such lucky Hen. Her Bridesmaids have organised a big day migrating from the township via the Cream Boat to the Tidal View Lodge where they stay overnight.
S5·E3Tontine
Cycling is very de rigour around the globe and no less in Brokenwood. When one such MAMIL, (Middle Aged Man In Lycra), Lester Nyman, reaches the top of a local mountain after a gruelling ride and suffers a massive coronary, it doesn't seem suspicious. But then Gina reveals his toxicology showed astronomical levels of caffeine in his system and Mike starts to look more closely.
S5·E4The Dark Angel
On the edge of Brokenwood sits an abandoned mental health facility, an asylum named Brokenwood Downes. Now derelict, the spooky buildings provide a great hideout for local teenagers.
