One of the standout televisual highlights of recent years, the BBC's 2008-2010 revival of post-apocalyptic TV drama *Survivors* succeeded in remaining true to the essence of the original series whilst delivering strong characters and storylines, and a hauntingly modern setting. Starring Julie Graham, Paterson Joseph, Max Beesley, Zoë Tapper, Phillip Rhys, Nikki Amuka-Bird and Chahak Patel, the remake proved to be a series which could be enjoyed both by those coming to the show with no memories or awareness of its predecessor and enthusiasts of Terry Nation's original.
