Netflix is just days away from removing Black Mirror’s most ambitious episode ever as the streamer undergoes a major redesign – and it’s bad news for fans of the dystopian drama.
The interactive film Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, directed by David Slade and written by Charlie Brooker, aired back in December 2018.
The official synopsis reads: ‘In 1984, a young programmer begins to question reality as he adapts a dark fantasy novel into a video game.
‘A mind-bending tale with multiple endings.’
Black Mirror: Bandersnatch is very different to the rest of the episodes from the franchise as viewers picked the ending, meaning that everyone’s experience watching the show was different.
According to The A.V. Club, the film, alongside Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: Kimmy Vs. The Reverend will be removed from the streaming service later this month.

It has been reported that the service is undergoing a redesign – including simpler navigation, your very own My Netflix hub, detailed informed about the shows/movies and responsive recommendations.
According to The A.V Club, it will mean that programmes such as Bandersnatch will be ‘incompatible’ going forward.
