Struggling to find something new to watch?
With a few clicks, Currys will send you a code to unlock thousands of exclusive television shows, documentaries, and blockbuster films free of charge. It's all thanks to a fresh deal struck with Apple TV+, the Netflix rival launched by the iPhone manufacturer back in November 2019. Anyone who is signed-up to Currys Perks — a free account from the high street retailer which regularly sends out a newsletter with discounts and giveaways.
Currys Perks also offers regular freebies, like the 3 months of Apple TV+ available today.
Given that Apple TV+ costs £8.99 a month, this is a free gift worth £26.97.
If you sign-up for Currys Perks today for free, you'll be gifted with a code to watch everything on Apple TV+ at no cost across your devices, including Apple TV 4K, Fire TV Stick, Roku, and Smart TVs. You'll have free access to all TV shows, documentaries, and films on the streaming service for three months — so you can keep bingeing until the first few weeks of next year. Cancel anytime and you'll be charged nothing
If you don't sign-up with Currys Perks, then Apple only offers a one-month free trial to new subscribers. You can cancel the free trial at any moment and pay nothing. If you upgrade to a new iPhone, iPad, or other Apple device, then you'll benefit from 3 months of Apple TV+ free too.
Becoming a member of Currys Perks means you can unlock the same benefit, without spending on a new iPhone.
Streaming on Apple TV+ can be done from the most popular hardware around, including Fire TV Stick lineup from Amazon, Roku streaming dongles, Sky Stream and Sky Glass hardware, as well as Smart TV brands like Samsung, LG, and Hisense. If you'd rather watch out-and-about, Apple TV+ is available on iPhone, iPad, Android phones, and tablets.
Apple TV+ sets itself apart from the likes of Prime Video, Netflix, BBC iPlayer, ITVX, and other streamers by only offering its own exclusive shows and films. Apple has resisted licensing agreements with other broadcasters, so you won't find forgotten BBC or Channel 4 shows reappearing, or US syndication staples like Seinfeld, Friends, and The Big Bang Theory available to watch.
Instead, it has solely focused on commissioning its own critically-acclaimed shows and films that cater to a diverse range of tastes.
With a focus on quality over quantity, the platform has quickly become known for its distinctive and award-winning content, giving UK viewers a compelling alternative to larger streaming giants like Netflix and Amazon Prime.
Although, it does have a lot less to choose from, compared to similarly-priced competition.
One of Apple TV+’s breakout successes is the hit series Ted Lasso. This heartwarming comedy, starring Jason Sudeikis as a well-meaning American football coach hired to lead an English football team, has not only won the hearts of viewers but also garnered numerous awards, including several Emmys. Co-created by Bill Lawrence, who launched medical-comedy Scrubs, the show blends gentle humour and an optimistic tone.

Apple TV+ has also ventured into darker themes with the critically lauded series Severance, a psychological thriller that explores the haunting consequences of separating work and personal lives through a controversial surgical procedure. Its unique storyline and stylized direction have made it a standout among recent TV releases, sparking discussions on work-life balance and personal identity. This dark yet intriguing series has found a strong following, particularly among UK audiences who enjoy thought-provoking and innovative storytelling.
For those interested in the science fiction genre, Foundation delivers an epic narrative based on Isaac Asimov’s classic novels. This ambitious series explores the fall of a vast interstellar empire and the mathematician who predicts its demise, promising viewers an intriguing and visually stunning experience.
The high-budget, high-concept production shows the scale of the Californian company's commitment to cinematic storytelling.
The platform’s film offerings are equally impressive, with CODA standing as a defining title in its lineup. This moving drama about a young girl navigating life in a family of deaf adults won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2022, bringing both representation and resonant storytelling to the forefront. It also helped Apple TV+ become the first streaming service to win an Oscar.
