Emmys 2017: Black Mirror episode 'San Junipero' wins two awards

The Charlie Brooker series beat out the likes of Fargo, Big Little Lies and Sherlock

Black Mirror is officially an Emmy Award-winning TV show having taken home the Outstanding TV Movie and Outstanding Writing for a TV Movie trophies for beloved season three episode 'San Junipero.'

The 80s-set, neon-dripped episode, starring Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Mackenzie Davis, was the standout episode for many, its theme of hopefulness marking it out from the show's other rather more disturbing outings.

Ever sarcastic, Charlie Brooker - who we interviewed last year - graced the stage to accept the Outstanding TV Movie award having beat out competitors including fellow BBC series Sherlock and the Robert De Niro-starring The Wizard of Lies.

Black Mirror's other nod is Outstanding Cinematography for 'Nosedive', the Bryce Dallas Howard-starring episode directed by Joe Wright (Atonement) and written by Parks and Recreation writer Michael Schur and star Rashida Jones.

The 69th Emmy Awards are hosted by late night host Stephen Colbert who kicked off the ceremony with a politically-charged speech which saw him bring former White House press secretary Sean Spicer on stage to mock the President.

Baldwin later won an award for his SNL appearance as Donald Trump poking fun at the President in his acceptance speech for his past failure to win an Emmy for The Apprentice USA.
