Banished

Drama 2015

Available on Pluto TV, BritBox, Prime Video, Tubi TV, Disney+, Hulu

In 1787 Britain banished its unwanted citizens - orphans, petty thieves, prostitutes and highwaymen - to Sydney in Australia. They found it to be so hot, barren and hostile that very few Englishmen wanted to set foot there. Somehow, in spite of famine, drought, escapes, hangings and floggings, the colony thrived.
