Survivors: The Classic British Post-Apocalyptic BBC Series - Series One / 1975

Premiering in April 1975 on BBC1, Survivors presented viewers with the starkest premise imaginable: that only a tiny number of people had emerged unscathed from a deadly global pandemic, into a devastated, dangerous and unrecognisable world. Created by Terry Nation, the first thirteen episodes of Survivors explored how these few individuals band together to confront the daunting challenges of survival.

Featuring new interviews, original source material and previously unpublished photographs, this comprehensive and meticulous study explores all aspects of the first series of an exemplary post-apocalyptic BBC TV series from what's now celebrated as a golden era of British genre television.
