We are only into the fifth month of 2020, but it already feels like the longest and most significant year of most of our lifetimes, and their is only one man who can sum it up perfectly, and that is writer of ‘Black Mirror’ and former star of ‘Weekly Wipe’, Charlie Brooker.
The energetic, scathing, and absolutely hilarious coverage that Brooker brings in this lockdown special is truly unique, and he manages to truly capture the failure of the government and the way the whole world has handled this crisis, without ever losing the humour.
Many people don’t want to watch TV about Corona Virus right now because it is all too real, but this is really essential viewing, mixing all the key events of the last few months with a real sense of cynical fun.
