Pick of the Day
Brave New World, 9.00pm, Sky One & NOW TV
Welcome to New London, a utopia governed by three rules - no privacy, family or monogamy - where everyone belongs to everyone else.
Based on Aldous Huxley’s world-renowned and prescient 1932 novel, Brave New World takes place in a seemingly perfect future society where family, money, monogamy and privacy have been abolished in the name of order and harmony.
The impressive cast includes Alden Ehrenreich, Harry Lloyd and Jessica Brown Findlay, along with Demi Moore in a recurring role.
When Bernard Marx and Lenina Crowne journey outside the strict social order of New London to the Savage Lands, they encounter difficult truths beyond the confines of the New World.
Here's a behind the scenes featurette:
