Originally watched on release back on Channel 4 in 2008, rewatched in 2025 as part of a "Charlie Brooker stint" before S07 of Black Mirror.
Holds up as an enjoyable binge show in a full watch session, with a fun and exciting concept behind it.
Some camera effects are a little dated now (excessive camera shake for high intensity scenes), but thankfully has a defining nod to some of Brooker's best writing and abruptness - both visually as well as in its satirical dialogues.
