How To Get To Heaven From Belfast is a 2026 British drama-comedy-mystery series co-directed by George Kane and Michael Lennox, following three Belfast women whose lifelong friendship is upended when they're forced to dig up the truth behind a suspicious death — all while guarding a secret of their own.
What is How To Get To Heaven From Belfast about?
When a long-standing member of their tight social circle dies under circumstances that don't quite add up, three inseparable friends find themselves pulled into an unlikely investigation. Set against the sharp wit and working-class grit of Belfast, the series balances dark humor with genuine emotional weight as the women juggle grief, loyalty, and mounting suspicion. Each episode peels back another layer of who their friend really was — and what uncomfortable truths their shared past might expose. The tone walks a precise line between comedic absurdity and real human stakes, grounding its mystery in character rather than plot mechanics.
Cast & crew
Roisin Gallagher leads the ensemble with grounded warmth, while Sinéad Keenan brings sardonic edge to her role. Caoilfhionn Dunne and Saoirse-Monica Jackson round out the core trio, each bringing distinct comic timing and dramatic range. The series is co-directed by George Kane and Michael Lennox, whose background in character-driven British television lends the show its assured, lived-in texture.
