Both of the names in the title are from olde English customs, the former about celebrating about Summer solstice and the later about seeing things (Or claiming not to have seen things).
Whilst the character of Mazey Day is named as such in the show Bo is lust Bo. She is a photographer/paparazzi, and while gifted in finding her prey wants to walk away from it until the big bucks tempt her - therefore I'm maing the jump to Little Bo Peep..
The night prior to the conclusion of the episode shows a full moon outside Mr G's LA household, Mazey is left with goats/sheep the following night.
Was the writer, Charlie Brooker, trying to tease more out of the story or is this just happenstance?

I think that there was less tech talk and more general horror in the season Anna but I'll try and do a lil' breakdown of what could be considered tech and then hopefully we can all add to it or remove things from it.

The "shoot me" comment which could be applied to gun or camera was a nice touch. -

Personally thought 2 and 3 were very solid, but Smithereens, San Junipero and Shut up and Dance are probably the only Netflix episodes to really stand out to me. The show has gone downhill considerably since the Netflix transition.
White Christmas remains for me one of the greatest episodes of television ever.
A footnote - Inside No 9 is a much better show now, in terms of anthology episodic nonsense. The last series was phenomenal -

It wasn't so full on with the tech aspect as other Black Mirror episodes but it still was a worthwhile episode and I think there might be more to it for those willing to mine it for what it is worth Dazed
