Description
It's the gamer one! With Charlie Brooker's background as a video games journalist, it was only a matter of time before we got the horror gaming episode. Wyatt Russell plays Cooper Redfield, a name that'll sound eerily familiar to old-school gamers. To do the episode justice, we've got Daily Mirror gaming experts JC Suttun (@HandleMaverick) and James Ide (@Jymography) in the studio to chase all the many, many gaming references in the episode, look at the how horror games have been covered in the media and unpick the Inception-like layers of *that* ending.  You'll have heard James on The Entire History of You and Men Against Fire podcasts for good reason - they're all about technology that changes our perceptions. Scariest episode of Black Mirror? Player One, you decide.  -- Welcome to Black Mirror Cracked - the podcast for all your Black Mirror needs. We alternate between episode analysis and interviews with Black Mirror cast and crew, with a new podcast released every week.
