Where to watch When the Dog Bites (1988) in the UK

When the Dog Bites (1988) is not currently listed on any UK streaming, rental, or purchase service. Last verified on 12 May 2026 by ScreenSearch.

“Film questions whether the encouragement of very low paid jobs and schemes - both in general and specifically how they function in the area affected by the closure of the Consett steelworks in 1980 - is a sufficiently visionary response to the question of survival in post-industrial Britain. Local people talk about their experiences, an escapologist performs and a drag act sings. Plus drama sequence in which Bill tells Rose that making a fortune is easy.” - BFI.
