Luther (Seasons 1–5)

Luther (2010) is a BBC One crime drama series you can watch online on iFILM. Idris Elba plays DCI John Luther, a brilliant detective who solves London's most harrowing murders — usually by crossing every procedural line in the book. Five seasons. One detective who cannot stop.

Luther's methods sit close to the edge, and he knows it. The cases are brutal: killers with elaborate, cold logic that most officers cannot follow. But the real tension runs through his relationship with Alice Morgan (Ruth Wilson), a genius sociopath he caught in the first episode and never managed to let go of. Creator Neil Cross built the whole show on that contradiction — a man who understands the darkest minds because something in him echoes back.

The series ran on BBC One from 2010 to 2019; Elba received a Golden Globe nomination for the role. The story continued in a feature film in 2023. Stream all seasons of Luther online on iFILM.
