Now into its third season, The White Lotus still has a lot to say and viewers can't get enough of it - and there's no need to miss out on the show wherever you are in the world.

A new resort and a entirely new set of privileged humans - The White Lotus season 3 gave audiences another round of satirical comedy as wealthy, flawed people did increasingly awful things while holidaying in a beautiful location.

In the opening episode of season 3, viewers wondered why the dastardly Greg had showed up in yet another White Lotus hotel, and by the end, a lot of viewers were obsessed with Leslie Bibb's (Kate) real-life outfits away from the show.

Do you need to catch up with The White Lotus? Here's how to watch the series in the UK and the rest of the world.

How to watch The White Lotus

For UK viewers, The White Lotus is available to watch on the streaming platform NOW, or on Sky Atlantic. For US viewers, The White Lotus can be viewed on HBO and the streaming platform Max.

NOW offers a seven day free trial to new members, which includes access to Sky Atlantic. Max isn't available to UK customers and doesn't offer a free trial, but you can get a seven day free trial by subscribing through Prime Video Channels, although this requires an Amazon Prime membership.

However, the show isn't available to viewers all over the world who may be outside the UK or US. But there is a resolution to this, VPNs (virtual private networks) are a popular way to access TV shows only available in other countries, if you happen to be travelling outside of your usual country of residence.

Jason Isaacs (Timothy) has suggested the dynamics between the cast members became strained at times throughout filming. The cast spent seven months filming the show in Thailand alone, often feeling unmoored by being away from home for so long.

"It was like a cross between summer camp and Lord of the Flies but in a gilded cage," he said per Cosmopolitan, adding, "It wasn’t a holiday. Some people got very close, there were friendships that were made and friendships that were lost."

Although the actor has declined to share specifics surrounding cast fallouts, he concluded, "I became very close to some people and less close to others, but we still all had that experience together and there’s a certain level of discretion required."
