The series is fresh, clever and overall comprises a good quality of writing, acting and directing. The concept of no soundtracks or any music in the background is brilliant and it lets the audience feel their feelings uniquely.
However, it seems as if the episodes are going on a downhill. Not very steeply but slowly. At this episode for example, it tries a bit too much to be a tear jerker and in the critical scenes there is, on the background, hints of dramatic music. Also, there are just piches of social messages and virtue signalling.
I hope this is not a trend but a one time thing. I would hate to see a show with such a promise to be ruined by the increase of the elements mentioned above, that has the power of ruining any good show.

This was the first time that I couldn't complete a Black Mirror episode, and let me tell you there were a couple doozies that I've watched until the end as I was still curious about the finale.
The priority whilist creating a show should always be quality of writing, acting and directing first. If you've accomplished that, if you must, add your personal social concerns, such as strong female characters, diversity, animal rights, whatever.
However the ungoing trend is that the order above is inversed, and that just results in a poor quality show that tries to dictate some social values adopted by the creators.
I know this rant seems somewhat irrelevant as a review for this episode as I have not said anything directly about it, but at the same time this is entirely what is wrong with this episode. Poor acting, poor writing, just a low quality show that you can encounter on any one season flicks these days. Sad to see such a good show like Black Mirror to fall down so hard.
