'Survivors' created by Terry Nation is a British TV series broadcast from 1975-1977. An accident at a bio lab unleashes a deadly virus that kills 99% of the human population. The aftermath leaves few survivors and a world that is thrust back to a pre industries period. The series centers on a group of survivors who come together shortly after the pandemic and learn to survive in the aftermath.
The Best TV programme ever made .. intelligent, thought-provoking, great acting, and so real characters.. the only TV show made (then) that had no incidental music.. a tour de force in storytelling, a whole world to immerse yourself into, and worryingly, its probably more poignant now than when it was made. none better.

Why did most actors in BBC dramas in the seventies talk with upper middle class accents?

Terry Nation is probably without a doubt one of my all-time favorite writers.

Thanks for posting this outstanding series, my brother and myself have enjoyed re-watching it. No criticism of the remake but the BBC are incapable of coming up with an ORIGINAL idea like this again. It just shows that drama, suspense and a gripping viewer experience doesn't depend on trigger happy law enforcers or special effects but on good story lines and strong characters. Thanks again for taking the time to upload this gem of TV history it has been appreciated greatly.
