White House Farm (Season 1)

White House Farm (2020) is a British crime miniseries you can watch online on iFILM. Director Paul Whittington reconstructs the night in August 1985 when five members of one family were shot dead at an Essex farmhouse.

At first the case looks shut: the daughter, who had a history of mental illness, is presumed to have killed her relatives and then herself. A detective played by Stephen Graham refuses to sign off on that and starts working the evidence again. Suspicion edges toward the surviving son, Jeremy (Freddie Fox). Alfie Allen, Mark Addy and Gemma Whelan round out the cast.

Across six episodes the writers build everything from court records, press archives and interviews with people who lived through it. No chases, no shootouts — just a slow grind through forensics and the awkward questions a convicted man still disputes today. One for viewers who like restrained European true crime that turns on detail rather than gore. Stream White House Farm (2020) online on iFILM.
