He knew who her father was and asked her about him, so he must have known she was Jessica Hyde.

He knew who her father was and asked her about him, so he must have known she was Jessica Hyde.
But after he asked her, did you know him, and she said no I left when I was four, he looked baffled and said where is Jessica Hyde and walked off. To me it was a realisation that what she said wasn't true, or have I misinterpreted the scene.

I read it as he has been looking for Jessica Hyde for so long and constantly says "Where is Jessica Hyde" in an almost programmed like fashion that, now he has found her, his "programming" has glitched hence his default "where is Jessica Hyde" before wandering off....
I think its rubbish. It has more plotholes than something with a lot of holes. No awareness of how the police or forensics work. The characters are not interesting. Not a lot really happens, its not telling you anything. It lacks the budget to adequately portray its concept.
It looked like some cool David Lynch thing in the trailers but its just some bog standard conspiracy nonsense.

Im not sure if I like it or not after watching the first 3 episodes, its like they're trying to hard to be controversial

Could well be 
Either of the two guys that control Arbi are far too obvious and it has to be someone that's already in the show.

it's is watchable but nothing special, I like the photography but I absolutely hate the story telling it's atrocious ... it is trying too hard to build up the suspense/thriller. Instead of showing the story it is telling it through the dialogue, shame really. Needs more drama too.
I thought the first episode was brilliant - pretty, attention grabbing, very well paced, suspenseful, hilarious and gory.
The other episodes so far have been a big let down with very little plot or character progression and some very stilted dialogue.

I thought that was great, obvious there was going to be a sinister twist at the end.

Very impressed by this show and thought the last episode was worth hanging around for to get past some of the storytelling elements. Loved the way it was shot, and the music was suitably odd to carry it all through. Well done Channel 4, tbh.

Enjoyed that especially the music and shooting style
What did you watch it on? I got halfway through S1 on Prime and then they removed it! (Presumably to plug their new US remakeOnly took me 8 years, but S1 done
)
