I’m so excited that *Safe Home*, that amazing Australian crime thriller everyone’s been talking about – it’s seriously got a plot that just grabs you – is finally going to be available to stream in the UK! I’ve been waiting for this!

Anna Barnes wrote *Safe Home*, a story about Phoebe, who changes careers from law to work at a center helping people affected by family violence.

Phoebe, a young professional in her twenties, quits her job at a successful law firm to assist a local legal center dedicated to family violence, which is facing potential funding reductions.

As the lives of those connected to the community center become increasingly intertwined, the struggle to keep it afloat intensifies. However, everything changes when she becomes involved in a shocking murder investigation, turning her world upside down.

Aisha Dee, known for her role in *Apple Cider Vinegar*, plays Phoebe in the series. The cast also includes Mabel Li, Thomas Cocquerel, Antonia Prebble, Virginia Gay, Chenoa Deemal, and Janet Andrewartha, a familiar face from *Neighbours*.

A new four-episode series, praised for being thought-provoking, is now available to stream on Channel 4 in the UK, and it’s free to watch with advertisements.
