The Woman in the Wall (Season 1)

The Woman in the Wall (2023) is a British crime miniseries you can watch online on iFILM. Lorna Brady wakes one morning to find a dead woman in her house, a stranger she cannot place, and she has no way to swear she didn't kill her.

For years Lorna has lived with severe sleepwalking. Whole nights vanish from her memory while her body keeps moving on its own. She also survived one of Ireland's Magdalene Laundries, the church-run institutions where unmarried women were confined and their babies taken away. That history refuses to stay buried, and the investigation pulls loose far more than a single death in a small town. Ruth Wilson plays Lorna; Daryl McCormack is a detective with his own buried stake in the case.

Creator Joe Murtagh fuses whodunit with gothic drama about trauma and institutional abuse, drawing on the real crimes of those laundries. Six episodes that sit somewhere between thriller and confession. Worth it if you favor bleak stories where the mystery matters more than the chase. Stream The Woman in the Wall (2023) online on iFILM.
