Summary Charlie Brooker, BAFTA nominated author of Dead Set, brings the second series of his International Emmy Award winning Black Mirror, to SBS 2 with three new stand-alone episodes. Each story is in turn disarming, suspenseful and darkly satirical, all exploring our modern reality.Waldo is a CGI blue bear from a children's educational TV show who in reality is an anarchic character on a satirical late-night topical comedy show. Behind the scenes, Waldo is voiced and controlled by failed comedian Jamie Salter (Daniel Rigby). When the channel decides they would like to give Waldo his own pilot, the production company enter him into a political race against one of his victims, Conservative Liam Monroe, for a stunt.Jamie isn't comfortable with politics - he just sees himself as a clown - but once the wheels start turning there's no stopping the thing.
