Many people have professed San Junipero to be their favourite out of the new series of Black Mirror. If you haven't seen it yet then stop here, turn around, head back to your telly and have a watch. There's spoilers in your you're probably not going to want to see.
For those of you that HAVE watched it, you'll know that San Junipero is a fictional town, it's 1987 and, every Saturday night, the locals and 'tourists' come together to dance the night away to INXS. But, just as is always the case with Black Mirror, not everything is as it seems.
Let’s have a look at your NTK.
Who plays Kelly in Black Mirror's San Junipero?
Gugu Mbatha-Raw. You might recognise her from Amma Asante’s Belle, 2014’s excellent film about a black women raised in English nobility in the 1700s, we actually interviewed her on the Deebs about it. She was also in Spooks for a bit AND get this, she’s about the be in Beauty and the Beast as Plumette the foxy feather duster.
‘I’ve done a few different periods in history but the Eighties is now a period! And I was born in the Eighties. It’s not that far away but it’s enough that people look at the shoulder pads and go ‘Oh yikes! Is that really what people thought was cool?’" She told the Evening Standard.
Who plays Yorkie in Black Mirror's San Junipero?
Mackenzie Davis. She’s been in a truly awful bro-heavy Zac Efron film called That Awkward Moment (which she is by and large the best thing in), What If with Zoe Kazan, Daniel Radcliffe and Adam Driver and, more recently The Martian with Matt Damon.
What are the songs in Black Mirror’s San Junipero?
They’re all crackers. From Heaven is a Place on Earth by Belinda Carlisle to Girlfriend in a Coma - The Smiths to Don’t You Forget About Me by Simple Minds. Hell, there's even Alanis Morisette's Ironic chucked in there for good measure.
