Here is everything new on Britbox in February 2019:
- February 3, 2019: Vera, Season 9 Finale (US Exclusive Premiere) Two-time Oscar nominee Brenda Blethyn returns as Detective Chief Inspector Vera Stanhope, whose offbeat manner and appearance belie a knack for catching killers, but not without the aid of her trusted colleagues. The crime drama series is based on the beloved Vera Stanhope Mystery novels written by Ann Cleeves (Shetland).
- February 5, 2019: Winterwatch (North American Exclusive Premiere) Experience the wonder and spectacle of true nature from the comfort of your own home as Winterwatch returns from a new location in the wildest environment of the UK – the Cairngorms National Park. Freezing temperatures and snow laden landscape sets the backdrop as each species prove what it takes to survive in unforgiving climates. Presenters Chris Packham, Michaela Strachan, and Gillian Burke host this dramatic and very, very cold wildlife extravaganza.

- February 12, 2019: Boy Meets Girl, Season 1-2 (North American Streaming Premiere) Love knows no bounds in this groundbreaking comedy which tells the story about the blossoming romance between 26-year-old Leo (Harry Hepple) and 40-year-old Judy (Rebecca Root, The Danish Girl and Colette).

Based in Stratford-Upon-Avon, Detective Investigator Frank Hathaway and rookie sidekick Luella Shakespeare form the unlikeliest partnership as they set out to crack each case in their quiet, yet secretive town.
