    Yep, I saw it. Started off really well but the storyline then got extremely bizarre. Apparently that's what Black Mirror is like, wasn't keen on it.

    Also got annoyed by the program direction selection very quickly. Can understand why they did it but just felt it didn't work for TV.

    On the whole very disappointed.

    I found myself drawn to all the darker choices. Got a five star rating for Bandersnatch pretty quickly!!!

    Perhaps that's the secret to developing top notch software - take out everyone that interrupts your coding...

    There were a couple of posts about this - including links to the game featured in it (which was a real game made by one of 'us') - and easter eggs etc... but I was kinda surprised most folk didn't say much about the actual program. I thought it was a brave venture - and was great to see something new made about those years where a bedroom coder might be the next 'big thing'... loads of nods to things only those like us would 'get'. I enjoyed it - but it wouldn't end ! I thought it was over - then it made me go back and do other paths and I went a little crazy after a while! I guess that was the point?

    It had a lot of levels.
    Spoiler:

    I enjoyed it in many ways. I need to find some more time to try some more ways and get to a five star rating.
    Sod it!
