After gripping readers for years, “Generation Z” is now coming to television. This horror miniseries boasts a great cast and is full of the dark comedy that made the original novels so popular. Read on to find out how to watch “Generation Z” from anywhere - and for free - using a VPN.

The story takes place in the fictional town of Danbury. It is hardly an exciting place, nor is it the kind of place where one would imagine a zombie apocalypse taking place. However, an accident occurs when a military convoy overturns and a chemical spill occurs. The leak occurs outside the care home and turns the elderly Cecily and Frank, among others, into flesh-eating monsters.

Meanwhile, teenagers Charlie, Kelly, Steph, and Finn are busy dealing with the usual teenage stuff and not having to fight zombies, but suddenly find themselves at the center of an outbreak. Is there more behind the chemical attack than initially thought? This six-part miniseries is full of gore, drama, and laughs.

Watch “Generation Z” online from anywhere.

In the UK, the highly anticipated “Generation Z” will premiere on Sunday, October 27 at 9 p.m. Japan time, followed by free streaming on Channel 4.

Tip: You can watch all episodes of “Generation Z” right now with Channel 4+'s 7-day free trial (£3.99/month thereafter).

But what if you're a Brit abroad and don't want to miss the show? Don't worry - you can watch via VPN instead. Here's how to do it.

If you are a Brit abroad and want to watch “Generation Z,” a VPN (Virtual Private Network) may be the answer to your prayers.

This software is ideal for those who are abroad on vacation or business trips, as it allows your device to appear as if you are in your home country, no matter where in the world you are. Our favorite is NordVPN, and you can see why in our NordVPN review.

The VPN is incredibly easy to use.

1. install the VPN of your choice; NordVPN is our favorite, and you can find out why in our review of NordVPN.

2. select the location you want to connect to in the VPN app. For example, if you are in the U.S. and want to see services in the U.K., select U.K. from the list.

3. sit down and watch Access Channel 4 and watch “Generation Z” online as if you were at home.

So far, “Generation Z” has not been picked up by any U.S. TV channels or streaming platforms.

But don't panic. If you are a British citizen in the U.S. on business or vacation, you can use a VPN such as NordVPN to watch the show on your usual domestic streaming service.

Like the U.S., Canadian networks have not announced any plans to pick up “Generation Z.”

However, British citizens vacationing in Canada can catch the show on Channel 4 by using a VPN such as NordVPN.

Unfortunately, as in the U.S. and Canada, there are no plans to air “Generation Z” in Australia.

On the other hand, Brits who are in Australia for work or vacation can watch the show for free on Channel 4 using a VPN such as NordVPN.

At the time of this writing, there are no plans to air “Generation Z” in New Zealand.

However, if you are out of the UK for any reason, you can still watch the show for free on Channel 4 using a VPN such as NordVPN.

What is Jason's home life like? Jason, Lorraine (Suzanne Armet), and Kelly (Buket Comur) are basically a happy family, getting by. Just like the family I grew up in, lots of love but not a lot of cash. They are not destitute, but they are always counting their pennies, keeping their problems as far away from their daughter as possible, and being emphatic. Her mother, Janine (Anita Dobson), has the money and almost monopolizes them both. He doesn't want to teach them a thing or two. Janine is not a bad mother, but he has a strange relationship with her. He is very close to his father and probably thinks his responsibility is to take care of his mother. When his wife hints at Janine's shortcomings, Jason is forced to admit them. But she is still his mother and he still thinks of himself as a dutiful son; they both have a sense of humor, a nice working-class way of making things less painful.

What do they hope for Kelly in the future? Both Jason and Lorraine probably had ambitions, but perhaps Lorraine did not go to college by design because of Kelly. But maybe Lorraine did not go to college because Kelly was there. She has that potential and she will do everything in her power to make it happen. She is bright and I want to see her get the opportunity she deserves.

Generation X doesn't come out of this series very well: ...... No, it doesn't work well at all. For a while, my fantasy was surviving the zombie apocalypse. When my son was at school in Kew, my big idea was to learn how to steer a boat on the Thames and how to get into Kew Gardens. So it was hard to play someone who would screw up big time.

When things start to go wrong, how does Jason respond - does he have a clue what to do - a common theme in zombie movies is that the kids act before their parents and investigate eagerly. The parents take the attitude, “Let's just sit tight and wait,” but if they sit tight, they will die. For Jason, there is a panic that if his house is ransacked, he will think “party” or “thief,” which doesn't make sense. If his own house were ransacked, he would think “party” or “thief” and not immediately jump to the conclusion that “mommy turned into a zombie.” Kids want to know what's going on, but Jason is more than that: I'll leave this one to the authorities. My mother always had the idea that the government and authorities knew best. As we saw in Covid, they do not. They were ignorant and mishandled the situation in shocking ways. We the people have settled politically to a much lower standard than we would have allowed a few years ago. [14] [15] You and [Generation Z director] Ben Wheatley have a history. He directed two series of “Ideal” for BBC Three and even shot the pilot many years ago. I love all of his work. If you've ever worked with him, it's like a legal shell; he blows the shell and you can drop everything and assemble it. He's great because he can blend humor with the dark. As a big zombie fan, I was really excited and as an actor, he is great to work with. He can do things that are not in the script or play with ad-libs. I don't know which version will be used. As a comic and someone with ADHD, it's nice to at least be able to come up with my own ideas. He knows what he wants, and no matter how stressed or slow he is, he's happy just to be there and be sure he's making something good.

What else is special about working with Ben? He doesn't shoot to death. Filming goes very fast, and he doesn't go back and reshoot scenes over and over to mess them up. Ben writes great scripts, but he is not pompous at all, always wanting to know if someone else can bring something to the table. For me it was a dream job and the best job I've had in years. I know the man Jason very well. He reminds me of my father so I did not need a great deal of prep. I got most of it on the first read. [I never worked with Suzanne, but we still keep in touch. I have always had a sort of impostor syndrome. But we hit it off right away, and Bucket was phenomenal, so I didn't have to force myself to pretend to be family. I had known and been a fan of Anita Dobson for years, and when she appeared in Murder, They Hope, I knew she was going to cut my throat in the film. She was very motivated. The younger cast members were very funny, but there was a point in between scenes where all the younger cast members were talking about things. I have never felt so old. But they were great, full of energy and blown away. It was nice to be accepted by both the elders and the up-and-coming talent.
