One Day tells the will they/won't they, decades-spanning story of two polar opposite students – Emma and Dexter (played by Mod and Woodall respectively) – who meet at university and strike an unlikely friendship that soon becomes something more.
If you've already binged the new adaptation, don't worry: there's another version of the devastating story you can watch – the 2011 film adaptation starring Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess.
While Woodall and Mod are enjoying career boosts for their portrayals of the romantic leads in the new Netflix series, the 2011 movie didn't quite have the same effect for Hathaway and Sturgess.
Critics took aim at Hathaway and Sturgess's lack of chemistry, as well as the former's attempt at a Yorkshire accent.
But why not decide what you think for yourself? Read on for everything you need to know about how to watch One Day, as well as whether it's available to watch on Netflix.
