What 12 12 12 is about
Anthony Mackie and Jamie Dornan lead 12 12 12, a crime thriller series streaming on Apple TV. According to TechRadar, the two actors play opposing sides, with Mackie's character pursued by the FBI as the suspected mastermind of a heist.
The title describes the structure of the story. The show unfolds in three parts: the 12 months spent planning the heist, the 12 hours of the heist itself, and the 12 days of fallout that follow.
Release schedule and where to stream
The series consists of eight episodes released weekly. TechRadar reports that the show streams in one place globally, with episodes arriving on the same dates everywhere. The rollout continues up to Christmas Day.
Because the series is exclusive to Apple TV, viewers need a subscription to that service to watch it in any country.
Watching for free
New Apple TV customers can sign up for a seven-day free trial, according to TechRadar. Depending on when the trial starts, it would cover some of the episodes, though the weekly release means the full series would not be free within one trial period.
Watching while travelling
TechRadar notes that viewers travelling abroad can use a VPN, a service that routes internet traffic through another country, to access their usual streaming subscriptions from anywhere. Availability and terms of such services vary, so readers should check the provider's own guidance before relying on this.
