reckon it's going to be just three stand alone episodes but with over-arching themes.

I thought it kinda dealt with the Orwellian type future well, when I thought about it, if society continued as it is today but with less regulations on media and human rights and the current capitalistic system pushing on , that is what it would look like. More humans, less resources, so new ways of harnessing power and more virtual lives, a more hyper fame driven tripe society. Just again it was painted in typical Brooker cynicism.
