What is I Hate Suzie about?
The eight-part series follows famous actress and singer Suzie Pickles (Billie Piper), whose world is turned upside down after her phone is hacked and images of her in a “compromising position” are leaked.
Exposed and devastated, Suzie attempts to hold her life and career together, as well as her marriage to husband Cob (Daniel Ings).
Episode by episode, she goes through all the stages of grief — Shock, Denial, Fear, Shame, Bargaining, Guilt, Anger and Acceptance — while seeking counsel from her best friend and manager, Naomi (Leila Farzad).
As Sky puts it, this “bold, bracing” drama asks “if any of us can survive being well and truly ‘known’”.

Is there a trailer for I Hate Suzie?
In the trailer we see Suzie as she tries to grapple with the events that have led her to this moment.
Filled with snapshots of her life both on and off-screen, we first meet the character as she poses for a glamorous photo shoot, which is eerily described by a photographer as "really haunting but hot".
Suzie is then heard addressing the photo hack at a movie screening saying: "I just wanted to say that there were some photos posted of me online last week, supposedly of me, stolen from me, in some mass hack."
You can watch the trailer at the top of this article.
