Australian crime drama Jack Irish has landed a new UK streaming home.

The show, which stars Neighbours and The Brutalist's Guy Pearce, first aired back in 2016, running for three seasons until 2021. It was also preceded by three TV movies.

All three TV seasons have now become available to stream on Channel 4.

Jack Irish follows the titular character, a former defence lawyer turned investigator and debt collector, and is based on the books by Peter Temple.

The series was called "terrific" by one fan on Google, while the show has a 76% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.

What to Read Next

Alongside Pearce, the show stars Marta Dusseldorp, Aaron Pedersen, Roy Billing, Shane Jacobson and Damien Richardson.

Last month, Pearce scored his first-ever Oscar nomination for his turn in The Brutalist, which is one of the frontrunners at this year's ceremony after landing 10 nods.

Meanwhile, earlier in February, the actor opened up about why he starred in "a bunch of shit" films for a couple of years, admitting to The Times he "needed the money" while going through a divorce.

"It was my divorce period, 2016, '17 and '18. I'd read scripts thinking, 'No, this is pretty good actually, I could do this' but a year earlier I would have said no," he said.

"You're forced to expand your tolerance of things when you need dough, so it was a real relief once I paid off my divorce.

"But it blurred my vision. I'd read something that I felt was good and then question myself. 'Is it good? Or just in the camp of paying off my divorce?'"

Jack Irish is available to stream now on Channel 4 in the UK.
