BBC News reveals the “new drama based on Grand Theft Auto” will come as part of a concerted effort to get the UK more interested in coding and technology.
Other aspects of the scheme include giving a million Micro Bits – stripped down computers similar to a Raspberry Pi – to students starting secondary school this year.
Former Gamespot UK editor-in-chief Guy Cocker is involved, and has revealed it’s a 90-minute feature focusing on the people who made the game – the Houser brothers.
It was a year ago to the day that the famously-reclusive brothers, Sam and Dan, took to the stage at London’s BAFTA Games Awards to accept a Fellowship Award presented by Hideo Kojima.
