Amazon's video streaming service has become almost a different beast since it was rebranded from Lovefilm in 2014. Amazon Prime Video is now the main global rival to Netflix and like its peer, it offers TV shows and movies to watch instantly on an internet connected device.

Amazon also invests fortunes in original TV content, with the likes of The Grand Tour, while Amazon Originals are exclusive to the platform, so you need a subscription to access them.

So should you want to watch those or any of the thousands of other programmes or films, this is all that you need to know - including how to get it on your TV.

What is Amazon Video and how much does it cost?

Amazon Video is the name given to Amazon's TV show and movie streaming application and service available on multiple devices. It comprises two elements: there are thousands of films and TV box-sets to rent or purchase digitally, which you pay for on an ad hoc basis; there is also Amazon Prime Video, a subscriber service that offers thousands of other TV shows and movies to watch as part of a Prime membership.

Prime content is clearly marked as such, and much of the TV programming available is homegrown. Amazon Originals is the name of the many series made by Amazon itself, plus localised exclusives, such as Vikings and Mr Robot, that are screened on TV in the States but are first available to Prime members in the UK.

You can either gain access to Prime Video through an Amazon Prime membership, which costs $119 ( or £79 in the UK) a year or $12.99 (£7.99) a month. Or can pay $8.99 a month (£5.99) in the UK for just Prime Video access. A 30-day trial of Amazon Prime is available for new users.
