The House Across the Street is a twisty new thriller that's come to Channel 5. Formerly known as The Winter Child, this thrilling four-part series follows single mother Claudia (Shirley Henderson), who is recovering from breast cancer whilst working as a school nurse.

She leaps at the chance to make some friends in the local area when she hears about the disappearance of a girl and decides to see if she can uncover the truth of what happened to Emily Winter herself. 

Claudia soon gets wrapped up in the case but ends up growing obsessed with Emily's family in the process. Soon, she finds herself organizing a vigil, raising money for the Winter family and even helping the girl's father, Owen (Craig Parkinson) make his way home one night when she finds him drunk. In the process, she grows increasingly suspicious of the people in the community as she tries to get to the bottom of everything that's gone on.

Here's how you can watch The House Across the Street online so you can follow Shirley's journey.
