Toby Jones's London-set drama series Capital has found a new UK streaming home.

Originally broadcast in 2015 on BBC One, the series focuses on residents in a wealthy street whose houses are approaching a £3 million value. However, things take a mysterious turn when they start to receive postcards declaring: "We want what you have."

Viewers wanting to catch up with the series can now do so on Prime Video after it was recently added to the streamer.

Last year, Capital was released on Netflix, though it will be leaving that service at the end of September.

The show is based on the book of the same name by John Lanchester, and was adapted for the screen by World on Fire's Peter Bowker, while Heartstopper's Euros Lyn directed.

Alongside Jones, the series also stars Sherwood's Adeel Akhtar, Bridget Jones' Gemma Jones, Doctor Who's Rachael Stirling, Only Murders in the Building's Noma Dumezweni and Sinners' Wunmi Mosaku.

The series was called "mysterious, funny, suspenseful, and moving" by one user on IMDb, while another praised its "unique twist".

In other news, the gripping first trailer for Jones's new ITV drama The Hack was recently released, showcasing the actor in character as The Guardian editor-in-chief Alan Rusbridger.

The series follows the News International phone hacking scandal, and also stars David Tennant, Steve Pemberton, Dougray Scott, Eve Myles, Robert Carlyle, Rose Leslie, Adrian Lester and Katherine Kelly.

"Set between 2002 and 2012, the drama deftly interweaves two real-life stories, the work of investigative journalist Nick Davies, played by David Tennant, who uncovered evidence of phone hacking at the News of the World," the synopsis reads.

"And running parallel, the story of the investigation into the unsolved murder of private investigator Daniel Morgan, led by former Met Police detective chief superintendent Dave Cook, played by Robert Carlyle."

Capital is available to stream now on Prime Video and Netflix.
