What would you do if your best friend told you they were going to die? Nothing to be done, no medicine, no doubts. That’s the predicament facing Jimmy and Tully, two friends living in Scotland in “Mayflies,” the two-part miniseries debuting on Acorn TV on Monday, Oct. 30. When one of them gets a terminal diagnosis, it sparks a conversation that will affect both of their lives forever. You can watch with a 7-Day Free Trial of Acorn TV.

How to Watch 'Mayflies'

About 'Mayflies'

Jimmy Collins (Martin Compston) and Tully Dawson (Tony Curran) have been best friends for three decades, having bonded over a mutual love of music, movies and more. But when Tully receives a terminal cancer diagnosis, it casts a pall over their friendship and leads him to make a startling request of Jimmy.

Tully wants to take control over his own destiny, and commit assisted suicide in Switzerland, where the procedure is legal. He needs Jimmy’s help, but Jimmy isn’t sure if he can bring himself to follow through. As Jimmy wrestles with the choice, the two revisit moments in their friendship, particularly one key trip as teens where they promised each other they would take life on differently.

    Acorn TV

    Acorn TV is an excellent choice for viewing television programming (and the occasional film) produced outside the United States, primarily content from the United Kingdom. The service also creates original content and has a library of hundreds of TV shows. Of particular note are their award-winning mysteries and dramas. Popular hits include “Happy Valley,” “Line of Duty,” “Murdoch Mysteries,” “MIdsomer Murders,” and “Poldark.”

    …

    Easy on the wallet, a monthly subscription allows for simultaneous streams from up to four devices, all commercial-free. There are no options for offline download, however, and the service only allows for one profile. While Acorn TV is largely safe for all ages, there is no content geared specifically for children. As such, the service does not provide any parental controls.
