Marketed as a “flirty, slick and dangerous series”, “Honey,” it turns out, is also a prequel to spy thriller phenomenon “Killing Eve,” taking us back in time to the heart of the Cold War. Here's how to watch "Honey" from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for FREE.
Berlin in 1982 is a dangerous place for a spy to be, especially one living as a deep cover agent. Martha (Ann Skelley) is 24, surrounded by enemies, and, the younger incarnation of Carolyn Martens, played brilliantly by Fiona Shaw in the original show. Constantly under threat of her cover being blown, Martha finds herself caught between Friedrich (Jannis Niewöhner), the new Stasi Head of Counter-espionage and CIA operative Aaron (Nate Mann), who has his own alter ego Kurt.
Danger lurks around every corner for Martha, deep inside a city where one wrong move could result in being incarcerated or shot, but the most horrifying option being presented to the young spy is an unexpected one ― falling in love.
Promising all the sexy spy appeal of “Killing Eve” mixed with the drab glamour of early-80s Berlin, “Honey” promises a gripping espionage thriller with a darkly comic streak. Read on to find out how to watch "Honey” online and from anywhere.
