Selma Hayek's laywer is also Bob Fossil - aka Rich Fulcher and all his other zany characters - from the Mighty Boosh!

I enjoyed this one, even if it strays into bizzare, but I like that about it.

This is a great episode, as is the next one, Loch Henry. It’s a little different thought- a bit more conventional for a Black Mirror episode.

Loved the start to this one, thought the middle sagged terribly, but enjoyed the 'twist' at the end. This seemed to be a massive Fuck You from Charlie Brooker to Netflix and streaming services, very meta.

This series is a return to form, after the limp previous series. By moving away from the strict "every episode has to be about technology gone wrong", it's allowed the series to be reinvigorated.

Great episode, made even more topical by the writers' strike against AI going on right now!
The only issue I have with this season is at times it threatens to stray from the technological dystopian theme, but hey, it's Charlie's show, he can do what he wants with it, right?
By the way, don't think you noticed it, but Joan's lawyer was former Taskmaster contestant Lolly Adefope! :)
