Just a quick note to say thanks so much for suggesting watching this, I just finished the last series at the weekend and it was all just so so brilliant. Lots of late nights watching 'just one more ep!', quite sad it's over now 
I was 'in the womb' when the last few eps of series 3 would have aired (summer of '77), but mum remembers watching some of these so maybe I did 'hear' bits of it at the time
As much as most people seem to be dissapointed with the last series I really did like the way it was going re: electricty and industry. I just think it would be such a terrible waste of our progress to just ignore technology and go back to pre-industrial revolution. Probably just the lazy modern couch potato with a bit of science background talking. Thats not to say I am in any way against the sustainable farming aspects... I just want everything I guess.

it's being reprised: "Julie Graham, Max Beesley, Nikki AmukaBird and Paterson Joseph star in Survivors, Adrian Hodgess exciting new action adventure drama series for BBC One produced by BBC Drama Production."
"How would any of us cope in a brave new world where all traditional 21st Century comforts electricity, clean running water, advanced technology have disappeared? These are the questions faced by the bewildered but resilient group of survivors at the centre of the drama"
Max Beesley was on Chris Moyles' show on BBC Radio One this morning and said "Survivors" was coming out in October but I haven't found specific dates yet.
The new cast is

The original ran for 38 episodes, we just don't do series that run that long anymore, so lets see what they can cram into a few hours?

Cant wait for the new series
Has anyone read Empty World by John Christopher. We read it back at school, one of the best books Ive ever read. Went and bought a copy a few years ago and had to order it special as it only goes to the schools normally.
