It's coming back to our screens soon...

Netflix have announced the cast and episode titles for the fourth season of Black Mirror, which will be available on the streaming platform later this year. Unlike many other series, Black Mirror is an anthology series, meaning that each episode is standalone and has no connection to those which preceded it or follow it. Charlie Brooker's brainchild will feature six new stories entitled; Arkangel, USS Callister, Crocodile, Hang the DJ, Metalhead, and Black Museum. For those of you that haven't seen the series, Black Mirror taps into our collective unease with the modern world. Each stand-alone episode is a sharp, suspenseful tale which explores themes of contemporary techno-paranoia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMXzlX5w04o&feature=youtu.be Below is a list of the episode titles in no particular order along with the cast, director and writers of the episode.
