You can watch them via the link above - though i'm not a big fan of watching telly on the computer, partly coz this one is a bit rubbish.

Exceptions are made for Meade of course.

I really enjoyed them all (the 2nd one was my favorite)
So nice to have something thought provoking and different form the usual drivel that's on the staring box!

I'm so sad that there's only 3 in this series!

Am I correct in thinking this is the same Charlie Brooker that does Newswipe on BBC2?

Put on National Anthem last night, I was amused but the other half was rather disgusted. I shall watch the rest by myself I think :D

The other two of the first series are completely different, with much less potential disgust involved. I feel quite sure she would enjoy them more than the first, if she enjoys them at all.

I'm still not entirely sure what to make of the first one... :pig:

Just watched the second, rather powerful **** to be honest. My main fear is that looking around you does not comfort you in any way to the possible future you are being shown, I am almost glad I haven't bred.

You will like the third one muchly one suspects - if only for the possibilities.

Would you have it installed, if it was available?

Just watched the first 5 mins while waiting for a call, thought it'd be something like that from the title. I dunno really, there are moments I'd love to see again but also many I wouldn't. I suspect the ones I'd like to revisit are not as perfect as I remember though, plus I suspect I'd be revisiting them from prison once the feds took a look at my past!

EDIT: Anyway, the call finally came through so I can go home, will watch it properly then.

You have to watch the next one - you will love it. :)

Edit - but don't try and find out anything about it first - come at it blind as it were.

Is it something the other half would watch? I ask of someone who doesn't know my other half! She was disgusted by the pig loving, but TBH think she'd have enjoyed the others.

Difficult to say for sure - it's a bit tense, with horror film style elements to it, but it doesn't have anything disgusting in it.

As you say, none of the others were like the pig one - neither is this. The denouement is brilliant, so i'm going to say yes she'll like it.

Excellent, I shall forcibly subject her to it later :D

EDIT: On a side note, loving the android stick streaming malarkey. Seems to work fine, download once and stream anywhere.

I was not expecting that but I really liked it, as did she. Very clever stuff, won't comment directly as not to spoil anything suffice to say it gets my approval. Rather gutted I only have one left to watch.
