Watch The Couple Next Door Season 2: Synopsis
The hit series returns for more steamy drama in suburbia. Set in the same languid streets but featuring an attractive new cast, viewers can expect twice the heat as another couple’s marriage is pushed to breaking point by the arrival of a seductive stranger. Starring Nashville actor Sam Palladio alongside Rivals’ star Annabel Scholey, get ready for another six episodes of seedy secrets, betrayal, and relationship-destroying trysts. Simply read on below for how to watch The Couple Next Door Season 2 online and absolutely free on Channel 4.
Penned once again by David Allison, the series sole writer, the star-studded thriller got viewers a bit hot and bothered when it debuted in 2023. Variety admitted it was “an absurd yet sexy thrill,” while audiences flocked to see just how freaky Outlander heartthrob Sam Heughan and his co-stars might get in this sexually-charged drama. Loosely based on Dutch series New Neighbors, it broke records for Channel 4’s streaming service with its first episode gaining in excess of a million streams in seven days.
There was general praise for the show’s actors, although its melodramatic subplots – including a religious cult and traffic cop Danny getting involved in a diamond heist – proved a little too ludicrous for some. Why should the naysayers give The Couple Next Dooranother go? Allison’s answer is, because Season 2 delivers “something that is sexier, bigger and bolder than the first series. […] We’ve got this incredible crime story in the hospital – it’s really dark and twisted and we’ve got this unbelievable new cast […] you’re going to love watching sparks fly between them.”
This time around, long buried secrets and passions erupt when surgical nurse Mia (Aggy K Adams) moves in next door to anaesthetist Jacob (Palladio) and heart surgeon Charlotte (Scholey). Slowly burrowing herself into the life of the married couple, she’s soon causing intense disruption, instigating affairs and multiple love triangles. But her presence at the hospital raises even bigger questions when a wave of patients start mysteriously dying. Just what is this manipulating seductress playing at?
Elsewhere, and serving as a connecting link to both season’s beyond their wonderfully salacious storylines, is sole returning cast member Hugh Dennis (Fleabag, Beyond Paradise): the neighbourhood’s resident pervert, carrying out long hours of community service and who may or may not prove an ally to shady surgical nurse Mia.
It promises to be a gripping binge-watch. Keep reading and we’ll explain how you can watch The Couple Next Door Season 2 online and stream every episode now, and from anywhere in the world with the help of a VPN.

Can I watch The Couple Next Door Season 2 online in the US?
US viewers after more kinky drama may have a long wait. While you can watch The Couple Next Door Season 1 online via the Starz channel on Amazon Prime (or through Starz own streaming service), it took over a year for the UK series to become available Stateside. Given that, and as we haven’t heard of any immediate release plans, don’t expect any new episodes to arrive online until sometime in 2026.
Traveling outside of the UK? If you want to access Channel 4 on-demand but find yourself away from home, download a VPN to connect to your country’s streaming services from anywhere.
Can I watch The Couple Next Door Season 2 online in Canada?
Not for the foreseeable future. Despite the show debuting in November 2023, it didn’t get a North American release until January 2025! So we’d imagine Season 2 will be similarly delayed probably until about July 2026. We’ll update you here with the latest information as it’s announced.
In the meantime, fancy bingeing the first six episodes of The Couple Next Door? In Canada, viewers can watch the entire series with any Crave membership, in addition to the Starz add-on at CA$6.99 a month extra.
Remember: UK citizens in Canada can download a VPN, which allows you access the same regional on-demand services you’d use back in Blighty, and no matter where you’re located.
