Synopsis
Ridley Road (2021) is a British four-part drama you can watch online on iFILM, adapted from Jo Bloom's 2014 novel by director Lisa Mulcahy. London, 1962: the decade is swinging, but neo-Nazi groups are marching through the streets and the authorities aren't doing much about it.
Vivien Epstein, a young Jewish hairdresser from Manchester played by Agnes O'Casey, follows her lover into danger when he goes undercover with the anti-fascist 62 Group. When he disappears and ends up in mortal peril, she infiltrates the fascists herself — no training, no support network. Rory Kinnear and Eddie Marsan round out the cast.
What gives this show its weight is the historical grounding: organized fascism in postwar Britain was a documented reality, not a fringe curiosity, and the series doesn't sand that down. Stream Ridley Road online on iFILM.
