| Conceived by Dr Who's Terry Nation, Survivors is a groundbreaking and startlingly realistic television drama series. First aired in 1975 at the height of the Cold War, Survivors' post-apocalyptic storylines immediately gripped the imagination of the British public and remains compelling viewing to this day. This digitally remastered DVD release includes all eleven hours of the first series.
The first series of thirteen episodes charts the onset and aftermath of a virulent plague that wipes out 99.9% of the world's population and the struggles of a lone group of survivors during the privations that follow. The action follows the experiences of three principal survivors: headstrong housewife Abby Grant (Carolyn Seymour - Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Voyager, Quantum Leap), enigmatic engineer Greg Preston (Ian McCulloch - Zombie Flesh Eaters, Contamination, Doctor Who) and London secretary Jenny Richards (Lucy Fleming - The Avengers, Smiley's People, Wycliffe).
