" I think this means get involved. Postscript: George Walkley at Hachette is blogging on the conference too, posting his comprehensive notes from the sessions on his blog. Activism or vandalism? Media affects culture. Black Mirror (TV series) Black Mirror is a British television anthology series created by Charlie Brooker that shows the dark side of life and technology.
The series is produced by Zeppotron for Endemol. Regarding the programme's content and structure, Brooker noted, "each episode has a different cast, a different setting, even a different reality.

On 9 January 2014, Charlie Brooker announced the third series of the show, confirming at least two more "helpings".[7] Robert Downey, Jr. has optioned the episode The Entire History of You to potentially be made into a film by Warner Bros. and his own production company, Team Downey.[8] The second series is popular in China.
