The Irregulars (Season 1)

The Irregulars (2021) is a British supernatural detective series you can watch online on iFILM, produced for Netflix and set in a dark, monster-haunted version of Victorian London. The cast includes Thaddea Graham, McKell David, Royce Pierreson, Harrison Osterfield and Jojo Macari.

Five teenagers scrape by on the streets — running errands, staying invisible. Then Doctor Watson recruits them for cases the police won't touch: hauntings, strange disappearances, creatures that don't belong in any natural history book. Watson's silent partner, the famed Sherlock Holmes, barely shows his face, but his absence casts a shadow over everything. As the jobs grow darker and a supernatural threat starts spreading through the city, the group realises they are not just investigators — they are the only thing standing between London and something much worse.

The show's smart subversion is making the famous detective the unreliable background figure while the kids with no power or protection do the actual work. If Victorian gothic atmosphere and a fresh angle on the Conan Doyle world appeal to you, this is the one. Stream The Irregulars (2021) online on iFILM.
