Utopia - Season 2, Episode 6 - Opening scene

There's a whole bunch of reasons why I love Channel 4's "Utopia", but scenes like these are by far the best way to explain it. Tense, masterfully written, topically relevant... simply phenomenal.

Btw, I do not own this, I just want to share what I consider to be one of the most exciting series in years. Rent it, buy it, get it. Just watch it.

This scene is so brutal despite the huge simplicity of it. Probably the most hard hitting monologue in the series and definitely the most memorable.

can't believe black mirror became so beloved and this was completely ignored by the US.

That’s my local bus stop. Every time I go in there I just get that creepy scene in my head.

What I love about this series is the constant feeling of foreboding and threat, also score is perfection!! Incredible television series.

This scene was shot in Barnsley, Yorkshire and gave me absolute chills when I watched it as the stand where they are sat is for the bus I used to catch to get home, also the female is clearly not from Barnsley, speaks too posh! This series was an absolute masterpiece and I just want to know what Wilson Rabbit has planned beyond series 2, guess we'll just have to see for ourselves.

Everything i love about Utopia in one scene. Genius show

I just watched ep 1 of the US Utopia. I had to come and watch this 3 minute clip of the original just to get the taste out if my mouth.

I always come back to watch this scene (and others) every few months or so. I miss this show too much. Fingers crossed that Netflix will bring it back someday, like they did with "Black Mirror".

[StevenLantz]

This series was so unlike anything else, the writing, the acting and the filming style. Purely amazing.

[PERSOGECKO]

I've seen this scene years ago yet I think about it pretty often
utopia is just the best show in its own category

[clementmenand]

This scene is so provocative, you seldom see that on TV. That's how Utopia is brillant, making you question about things society made you believe in. Plus, with that bit of Hotline Miami-like music at the end, I would love to see Utopia season 2's soundtrack released.

[MarcaF]

anyone else agree that the background soundtrack really made this video?

[johnlime]

I like how as he leaves with his bag leaving the mother scared and stunned, Hotline Miami 2 -esque music plays, which is really fitting considering that he's about to go on a murder spree and release a potentially world-ending virus.

[ecddanieldce]

IMO this is the best television series ever made

[jakejones]

One of the most chilling scenes I've ever watched and from both sides of the argument. Just wow. I wish there had been more of this show. Also, I seem to be a little late to this clip but very glad it's still up so thanks to the OP.

[stilwells]

I honestly think this sleeper agent was the most intimidating villain of the show, probably because the lack of emotion. No other character shows such absolute carelessness to life.

[Kezsora]

Crazy how many people are missing the point of this scene, you aren't supposed to agree with him despite is supposed 'logic'. A large theme of the show is literally about the ability to be able to feel something.

I really should stop giving this speech to people in work. Especially since they never actually invite me to the christenings.

[caitlynetherington]

I went over to my boyfriends mum and sat in that bus station exactly where this scene was filmed
in Barnsley interchange 😃😃😃

[ecddanieldce]

One of the best series I've ever seen
