英國“神劇”《黑鏡子》為我們構建了一個看似荒謬無稽的世界，而仔細想想，在現實中這些并非不可能?？萍荚跒槲覀儙肀憬莸耐瑫r，也埋下了一些隱患。

　　The manner in which TV series in the UK are aired can be highly frustrating at times. Sometimes you only get three episodes of a show and then nothing else for a couple of years.

　　英劇的播出方式偶爾會令人心情跌到谷底，有時只只播出前，之后便沉寂數年。

　　While waiting for more episodes is frustrating, it does allow a lot of interesting ideas to make it onto TV screens, thus always offering audiences something exciting to watch.

　　雖然追劇是件令人抓狂的事，但這樣一來，也為熒幕上的一些奇思妙想提供了沃土，從而不斷為觀眾帶來驚喜。

　　One such exciting idea is the mini-series Black Mirror. Aired on Channel 4 in the UK, it’s a series of three unrelated one-hour short movies that all offer a twisted commentary on technology.

　　迷你劇《黑鏡子》便是這樣一部令人欣喜的作品。這部在英國第四頻道播出的劇集由三個時長一小時的獨立短片構成，全部反映出對于科技的一種幾近扭曲的注釋。

　　For those not familiar with the series, let’s take a look at some of the intriguing yet strange topics of the previous episodes so that you can get an idea.

　　有人可能還不熟悉該劇，我們來“科普”一下前幾集里妙趣橫生，而又匪夷所思的主題。

　　In one story, an unknown person kidnaps a British princess and posts a ransom video on YT. The video says that the princess will be set free if the British prime minister performs an indecent act with a pig on live TV.

　　其中一集中，匿名人士綁架了英國公主，接著在視頻網站YT上發布勒索視頻。視頻中，綁匪要求英國首相公開在電視上與一只豬進行一段不雅表演以換取公主的平安歸來。
