It is worth revisiting this seven episode series, instead of being diminished over time it seems better, the characters are more recognisable and we are now in an age where just about everyone is 'a self facilitating media node'.
It is also a who's who of UK acting/comedic/writing. Charlie Brooker & Chris Morris are the writing team although you do get the feeling that at least some of it is ad-lib.
It can be genuinely uncomfortable watching parts of it, we are made to squirm as Dan Ashcroft has to trade in his misguided 'ethics' for cash and the eponymous Nathan Barley can be so tremendously offensive in such a casual manner that is a bit of an eye opener 'does the pope fxxk kids' being a classic example.
Last word is that Julian Barrett as the aforementioned Dan Ashcroft steals the show....
Try is again it is ace.
