Occupation is a three-part drama serial broadcast by BBC One in June 2009. It was written by Peter Bowker and produced by Kudos for BBC Northern Ireland.

It took four years to bring the serial to screen. Filming took place in Morocco and Northern Ireland.

The serial follows the fortunes of three British Army soldiers from the 2003 invasion of Basra to 2007. Each is inspired to return to Basra for different reasons: one returns for love, one for monetary gain, and one for his belief in the mission to rebuild the country.

It received the British Academy Television Award for Best Drama Serial in 2010.
