Charlie Brooker and wife Konnie Huq made a very rare outing with their children at the festive star-studded London Eye experience.

The married pair are so private that we often forget that the Black Mirror creator and the former Blue Peter host are in a cute family of four.

The two were pictured on Saturday at the central London event proving that they have a close bond, as they cuddled around their two sons Covey, six, and Huxley, four.

The family joined a whole slew of stars at the London Eye experience day including Love Islands Laura Anderson and Strictlys Kate Silverton.

That was absolutely the right time, he said. It was weird because, for years, Id not known if Id wanted kids or a family, that seemed like something that other people did, I couldnt perceive of that as a future.

He added: And then Konnie came along and quite early on she said “I want kids and a family” and this sort of thing, and I heard myself going “OK”, and sort of thought, “oh, right, why have I said that?” It was the best decision I ever made.

Black Mirror fans are currently itching for Season 5 of the hit Netflix show.
