El Niño Streaming 2026 - Two Weeks in August - Miniseries

Two Weeks in August feels a little like a poor man's British The White Lotus in Greece. Just not at a fancy hotel, full of rich folks.

Premiering on BBC One/BC iPlayer back in May, the series streams here in Australia on Binge. The streamer that just grabs all the leftover series. Sadly poor Binge has never recovered since losing the HBO deal.

Two Weeks in August focuses on Zoe, on holiday with friends and family in the Mediterranean, who finds herself trapped on a Greek island. A group of old university friends go on holiday together, 20 years after first meeting each other.

Zoe, a comprehensive school teacher, tries to hold the group together, putting her own needs aside. Her husband, Dan, is depressive. Nat is annoyed when the casual boyfriend of her gay best friend, Jacob, turns up at the villa.

There is a kiss between two members of the party, which splits the opinions of the group, and impacts the remainder of the holiday. Zoe also has visions related to Greek mythology throughout the series, which become increasingly odd.

Two Weeks In August is a black comedy/psychological drama about a group of friends holidaying on a Greek island who uncover more about themselves and each other than they ever expected...

Starring Jessica Raine, Damien Molony, Nicholas Pinnock, Antonia Thomas, Leila Farzad and Hugh Skinner.

Dylan Brady as Will is simply easy on eye and kept my interest over the eight episodes. Despite being English, this did have some filler episodes.

They really could have covered the main plot points in four, or at a push, five episodes. Some episodes felt way too drawn out.

This wasn't bad, but wasn't amazing. The El Niño Streaming 2026 series has just begun. As has daylight savings. Big series returns this month here.

Until next time, one more day of freedom!!!
