Charlie Brooker’s Gameswipe (2009)

Jumping forward to 2009, and Luke and Ash walk into the living room of Charlie Brooker to enjoy his one-and-done Gameswipe special for BBC. Brooker covers - essentially - the entire video game genre and the history of the medium including its humble beginnings with Tennis For Two as well as controversial titles like Grand Theft Auto, Manhunt 2 and - of course - Night Trap.
