Sky 's highly anticipated drama The Death of Bunny Munro has finally hit screens, and viewers are calling Matt Smith 's performance as Bunny the "TV performance of the year." Set in 2003, the series not only stars Smith in the lead role but also sees him serve as an executive producer.

Based on Nick Cave's 2009 novel, the six-part Brighton-set series follows troubled sex addict Bunny (Smith), whose life falls apart after the sudden death of his wife, forcing him to navigate single parenthood while raising his young son, Junior (Rafael Mathé).
