I stumbled across this show on Now TV one evening and while I'm very familiar with Gaiman's work after a few episodes I realized he is the creator behind this drama series.
Upon viewing the first episode it was apparent there's a very arty symbolic nature to his work (similar to Coraline) and I was absorbed quite instantly. The stories all feel bite sized and not too drawn out, they have such a wonderful simplicity whilst maintaining an air of mystery and dread within them. The dialogue and scenarios feel very familiar which really puts you into the show, as such conversations you can come across people talking about in your local cafe/bar, but with a heightened uncomfortable undertone in each episode. I look forward to re-watching this show and wish Gaiman would create a second series- if you're a fan of black mirror I am pretty sure you'll want to check this out.
