25 Biggest WTF TV Moments Of 2016

5. Shut Up & Dance - Black Mirror

The third episode of Black Mirror's new season sees Kenny (Alex Lawther) blackmailed into an online truth-or-dare game after a hacker records a video of him masturbating after gaining access to his computer's webcam.

Kenny carries out a number of increasingly daring challenges before being forced into a battle to the death against another man caught in the game, where it's revealed that Kenny had been actually masturbating to child pornography.

The episode ends with it being implied that Kenny killed the man, just as his mother is notified of his activities and the police arrive to arrest him.

It does a fantastic job playing with expectations (because how often does the media depict pedophiles as youngsters rather than grotesque old men?) and as such delivers some chilling food-for-thought.
