"TV Series from 2008:  Preparing people for surveillance society and biometric ID "

 
I just saw that there was a television series which is about an hour and a half and has 5 episodes on PBS.   It is called Masterpiece Contemporary:  The Last Enemy and it was made in 2008.  

"A mathematical genius takes a wild ride through the boundless paranoia of a surveillance society on The Last Enemy, a five-part thriller set in England in the not too distant future. Scripted by award-winning writer Peter Berry (Prime Suspect 6: The Last Witness), The Last Enemy launches the first season of MASTERPIECE CONTEMPORARY on PBS. Biometric ID cards, ubiquitous security cameras, and "Total Information Awareness," a program to give authorities unlimited access to personal data, have turned Britain into a virtual police state. And it turns out that Big Brother has even bigger plans for keeping track of citizens."
