I like technology, but 'Black Mirror' is more what the consequences are, and it doesn't tend to be about technology itself: it tends to be how we use or misuse it. We've not really thought through the consequences of it.

In the age of social media, everyone's a newspaper columnist, exaggerating what they think and feel.

Nothing happens in cricket, ever. Even the highlights resemble a freeze frame.

I can't imagine voluntarily standing beside an F1 track in the rain, watching motorised wedges plastered in corporate decals zooming past at 500mph.

Technology is a tool that has allowed us to swipe around like an angry toddler.

If you're living in a dystopia, you don't necessarily want to look at another one.

Our metropolises are blighted by two problems: a lack of public transport and a lack of public loos.

Everyone's opened a drawer and been startled by the unexpected discovery of an old mobile phone that now resembles an outsized pantomime prop. To think you used to be impressed by this clunky breezeblock. You were like a caveman gawping at a yo-yo.

A cupcake is just a muffin with clown puke topping.

I've never lost that freelance mentality. You can't take a holiday because you're worried the work will dry up.

Brexit is a harbinger for Trump, really.

We take miracles for granted on a daily basis.

I have often felt the worlds of social media and the Internet are like a weird dreamscape. Even physically, when you are looking at your phone, you are out of it.

I haven't always been the kind of man who plays videogames. I used to be the kind of boy who played videogames.

If there's no point, then there's no point giving up.

It's hard to think of a single human function that technology hasn't somehow altered, apart perhaps from burping. That's pretty much all we have left.

Apple excels at taking existing concepts - computers, MP3 players, conceit - and carefully streamlining them into glistening ergonomic chunks of concentrated aspiration.

I don't know how, at an age when you're trying to put your identity together, how you cope with the pressure of a performance space, which is what social media is.

When it comes to something like Brexit, I am part of the liberal-media London bubble, and so, to me, voting to leave was madness. My perspective was that it was cutting off your nose to spite your face.

I didn't pass my degree due to never handing in an acceptable dissertation, and while it didn't harm me in the long run, my failure to complete the course properly probably led me to spend the next six years or so coasting, unsure of what to do next.

With Boris Johnson, you don't think of him as a politician, oddly. You think of him as a media personality because he's a comic character. He's basically Homer Simpson. That makes him strangely bullet-proof.

We're inseparable, games and I. If you cut me, I'd bleed pixels. Or blood. Probably blood, come to think of it.

Games get a bad press compared with, say, opera - even though they're obviously better, because no opera has ever compelled an audience member to collect a giant mushroom and jump across some clouds.

'The Twilight Zone' was sometimes shockingly cruel, far crueller than most TV drama today would dare to be.

People tend to think I'm a lot more earnest than I am.

When you're being earnest, people think you're being sarcastic, and when you're being sarcastic, they think you're being earnest. The moral in all this, of course, is that people should never attempt to communicate.

At 16, I was drawing cartoons, and I wanted to carry on being a cartoonist.

I can't rank anything. I mean, how could anyone possibly say what their favourite piece of music is? I don't have the ability or the desire to categorise things of that nature.

The sole purpose of a crown is to make anyone not wearing one feel like an insignificant pauper. They're obscene to the point of satire.

Tinder is the ultimate gamification of romance. It's 'Pokemon Go' for the heart.

I've scaled back my involvement with Twitter; it's too easy to get dragged into an argument.

Is hacking ever acceptable? It depends on the motive.

I liked that sort of thing, those one-off stories like 'Tales of the Unexpected,' 'Hammer House of Horror,' 'The Twilight Zone' and 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents.'

I'm not anti-technology at all, really.

Videogames are probably my first love.

I liked 'Making A Murderer,' 'Master of None.' 'Stranger Things' I watched along with everyone else in the world. 'Narcos,' I really liked 'Narcos' a lot.

I remember when I realised, as a child, 'That stuff on the TV about nuclear bombs is real! Why isn't everyone running around shouting 'Aaarrgghh'? Why are people still buying bicycle clips?'

I'm extremely neurotic; it's the way my brain is built.

I used to draw comics a lot. I was obsessed with 'The Young Ones,' and was massively into video games, although I was no good at them.

I've got a phobia about throwing up.

I'm quite techy and gadgety.

I've got no attention span.

I wanna do some more goofy comedy stuff; I really enjoyed doing 'A Touch of Cloth.'

I'm looking forward to the 'Twilight Zone' from Jordan Peele... if anyone's gonna reboot the 'Twilight Zone,' then there's the man to do it.

I loved 'Get Out.'

With 'Hang the DJ,' I was concerned that it was more comedic and much lighter than we normally do for 'Black Mirror.'

On 'Black Mirror,' we don't tend to deal with big, powerful people, because when you look at a Weinstein or something, you think, 'Is he capable of feeling anything?'

The logical quandaries thrown up by well-meaning systems are clearly something that I find darkly amusing.

I think the problem we have as apes is we're asking far bigger questions than we could possibly process.

Hopefully, some supervillain threat will come down, and we will have to unite as a species and fire our nukes into the sun or something.
