The Loneliest Robot in Great Britain is a viewable film in Grand Theft Auto V produced by Fred's Pictures, an American movie company and directed by S. Louis Crawford.

Description[]

A 10-minute animated fable set in a dystopian futuristic Great Britain, it features a rather light-hearted and family friendly visual aesthetic which is overshadowed by scenes of violence, profanity, homophobia, sexual content, and dark images. Despite this, it is rated PG for "Parental Guidance". It includes Easter eggs and references to past Grand Theft Auto titles, such as the British spanking lover Freddy.

According to an Internet news article from WNKA International after the mission Crystal Maze, the movie was banned in the United Kingdom as it was considered pornographic.

Influence[]

The film was based on a movie adaptation of George Orwell's influential and controversial book Nineteen Eighty-Four which also takes place in a dystopian futuristic Great Britain. However, it contains several references to prying or overly-controlling authority figures, and attempts by government to increase surveillance.

The film also seems to be inspired by WALL-E, a Pixar science fiction film that at the beginning portrays a lonely robot in a largely dystopian future Earth.

The scene in the finale of Martin climbing Big Ben with Maureen's head in his arms, before being shot down, is a reference to King Kong.

The resurrected Maureen only being able to say 'pieces of eight' is a reference to Treasure Island, where Long John Silver's parrot can only say the same phrase.
