Charlie Brooker article in The Guardian in which he explains his reasons for writing the series.


Episode One, The National Anthem, is about secrecy, privacy, and social networks. It is on Sunday night (December 4) at 9pm.

Episode Two, Fifteen Million Merits, is about a miserable society in which the only hope for escape lies in a TV talent show.

Episode Three, The Entire History of You, is about a world in which you can keep a personal record of everything you do in digital form, and revisit it any time you want.

I would say this is essential viewing before your Unit 3 exam in January.
