Well after all the killing last week wasn't sure where they could go...

Small point, why do they use BBC News I would have thought they would say no to a non beeb drama. And would think Channel 4 would want C4 news or ITN.

Channel 4 is a BBC channel it just doesn't receive any of the license fee and is therefore allowed to be commercial

Gripping...

[Laurel Green]

Who is Rabbit

Roger!

[The Hypno-Toad]

Oh st, what next?

[ajprice]

Oh noes. A second warning. Last time Wilson lost his eye.

[Burnham]

Odd. Gripping in the places of high tension but I just dont have a clue whats going on.

Not sure how much longer I can give this. How many episodes?

[Laurel Green]

Three more to go.

The killer bloke just oozes nutcase, just everything he does is just stereotypical crazy.

Enjoyed the episode, wonder what he meant by 'where is Jessica Hyde?' Is he a phoney??

Right down to the pointy out left foot...

[ajprice]

He does play the nutter part really well. Not sure if he's cracking a bit with asking about his dad, talking about his now dead partner and 'where is Jessica Hyde?' At the end.

yeah turns out it WAS funded by ITV i think i got confused by the whole government involvement in its inception but i have been a bit mindscrubbed by utopia so leave me alone

Just found out what Alexandra Roach (Becky) has been in before. She was Sasha the 'type 4' zombie in series 3 of Being Human .

[RumpleFugly]

Great episode!

Some very shocking, close to the edge elements but it's very watchable.

So is Jessica Hyde who she says she is?

If so why did Arby ask the question again...

I love the fact this series doesn't give too much away and makes you piece it together yourself.

Interesting comment I just read that may be a spoiler...

"Wasn't the man in the white coat disappearing down corridors a hint as to who the Rabbit is?"

I saw in the credits, that it was part funded by BSKYB. I'm pleased they are funding good UK produced programming rather than the usual dross they import.

C4 is a commercially funded public broadcaster. It's owned by you and me but does no receive any funding. However I did read somewhere they want a slice of the licence fee.
