Charlton "Charlie" Brooker (born 3 March 1971) is an English satirist and broadcaster. He has worked in television, radio, print and online media. In addition to writing for programmes such as ''Brass Eye'', ''The 11 O'Clock Show'' and ''Nathan Barley'', Brooker has presented a number of television shows, including ''Screenwipe'', ''Gameswipe'', ''Newswipe'', ''Weekly Wipe'', and ''10 O'Clock Live''. He also wrote a five-part horror drama ''Dead Set'', which was nominated for the 2009 Best Drama Serial BAFTA, and as creator and co-writer of the drama series ''Black Mirror''. He has written comment pieces for ''The Guardian'' and is one of four creative directors of the production company Zeppotron. Brooker's style of humour is acerbic, savage, profane, and often controversial with surreal elements and a consistent satirical pessimism. He won the 2009 Columnist of the Year award at the British Press Awards, the 2010 Best Entertainment Programme Award for ''Newswipe'' from the Royal Television Society, and has received three British Comedy Awards: Best Newcomer in 2009, Best Comedy Entertainment Show Award for ''Newswipe'' in 2011, and Best Comedy Entertainment Personality in 2012. == Early life == Brooker was born in Reading, Berkshire〔GRO Register of Births: MAR 1971 6a 275 READING, mmn = Povell〕 and grew up in the village of Brightwell-cum-Sotwell, Oxfordshire.
