    Default Utopia - British TV Series.

    Never heard of this before but just started watching it. Channel 4 made 3 years ago : Utopia

    About to watch episode 3 which google tells me got channel 4 more Ofcom complaints then anything they did previously.
    1st 2 episodes were brutal enough. It is a strange DARK comedy, that twists and turns but is very, very clever with some fantastic acting.

    Recommend highly.

    In the first episode I think 3 or 4 people were murdered in the first 5 mins.

    It will have one phrase going round your head. "Where is Jessica Hyde?"

    Watch it

    We watched both series when they were first on and loved them, pretty sure I remember exactly what episode 3 is about, but I won't spoil it for you, very, very harsh and unexpected!

    Thanks to broona

    I had a massive boner for this when it was on. Fucking brilliant and well written and acted. Love the Welsh girls accent and Peters constant "Where's Jessica Hyde?" Wasn't as keen on season 2 tbh.

    Thanks to BertRoot

    Just watched ep3 pmsl...

    From memory the timing of the episode might have coincided with Sandy Hook ????

    Which probably pissed a few people off. lol

    Neil Maskell's pan faced "Where is Jessica Hyde" throughout was genius. Shame there was no season 3 but season 2 got mixed reviews so probably why they binned it.
