My favorite character in Black Mirror is no other person but Yorkie. Yorkie's role was played by Mackenzie Davis. She features in San Junipero and Black Museum. I will say she sacrificed her life to make sure there is a permanent going out and coming into San Junipero. She is euthanized, so to say. She lives a sole life in the movie, with no father and no mother. Yorkie is only known for being related to Greg, who happens just to be an ex-fiance. Greg eventually gets married to Kelly in the long run. The kind of life that Yorkie lives is a real emotional one. No one would willingly choose that kind of life.
Playing such a role is not something that simple. I learned a lesson from that; not everybody might actually be it my own way; we all have different perspectives. Yorkie's life is kind of a humiliated one, which really gets my emotions. Mackenzie Davis did a good job in acting that role, while the older version of hers, which is acted by Annabel Davis, is a real commendable one.

My favorite character in Black Mirror is Yorkie in the San Junipero episode. Actress, Mackenzie Davis portrayed her. In the episode, she is socially awkward, especially compared to the outgoing Kelly. Yorkie has quite an interesting back story. She has been trapped in a coma since age twenty-one, and she seeks euthanasia to "move" to San Junipero. Her religious parents cannot accept that she is a lesbian, which makes her feel very uptight sexually until she meets Kelly.
A significant part of her character is her relatability and the stars she has in her eyes for her newfound companion. Yorkie is also much different from most of the residents of San Junipero. She doesn't put up a front as a way of seeking her peer's approval, and she is also charming and sensitive.
