    CHRISTMAS IS RUINED!

    Seriously though, given everything that's happened this year it's a real shame there's no Wipe this year.

    I'd say it was bound to happen, as commitment to Black Mirror has no doubt taken over.

    Unfortunate that it's the same year they won a BAFTA for Wipe, but then again - Black Mirror did well during awards season also.

    This is very disappointing, I used to love this show. I hope it returns next year.

    That's a shame, I always looked forward to it at this time of year.

    A pity but I do understand that he's probably up the walls (and for a guy as talented it's nice to see, imagine Jodie Foster now is involved in Black Mirror episode:eek:).

    It was Philomena Cunk doing a voiceover to Trump being elected and saying in her flat Mancunian that "You can imagine seeing this clip in years to come with ominous music playing" I remember .... and this time it was deliberately not being funny.

    I reckon the whole show would have been about Brexit...and i dont think the brits could have stomached any more...

    Cunk & Sh!tpeas should do their own special, they were the best thing about the swipes after all imo
