The BBC has added Saltburn to the iPlayer streaming service after its network premiere on BBC One last night.
Promising Young Woman director Emerald Fennell's second feature film is set in the mid-2000s and focuses on class divides and murderous obsession.
Released in late 2023, it became a massive hit, due to notorious scenes involving Jacob Elordi's bathwater, a gravestone, and Barry Keoghan's climactic naked dance routine.
The film was so popular that it propelled Sophie Ellis-Bextor's 'Murder on the Dancefloor', which featured in the ending, back up to #2 on the UK charts over 20 years after it first peaked there.
Saltburn also received a solid reception from film reviewers and fans. On Rotten Tomatoes, it has a 71% rating from critics and a 79% score from users.

Mashable called the film "willfully seedy, boldly savage, smoking hot, and unnervingly sensational", while Loud and Clear wrote that it was "a poignant satire of our society".
Outlets like the Minneapolis Star Tribune and Wall Street Journal praised Keoghan's performance as the highlight of the whole movie.
"The power of Barry Keoghan’s center-ring performance cannot be adequately over-praised," Observer wrote.

Not every outlet loved Saltburn. In a mixed review, we at Digital Spy stated that the film "has a style-over-substance problem".
"It's a one-perfect-shot kind of movie, too preoccupied with shock value to offer something really worth remembering," the review added.
Saltburn is now available to stream on BBC iPlayer, and is also available on Prime Video.
