The original ‘SURVIVORS’ was a British post-apocalyptic fiction drama television series created by TERRY NATION and produced by Terence Dudley at the BBC, that broadcast from 1975 to 1977. It concerns the plight of a group of people who have survived an apocalyptic plague pandemic (frighteningly prophetic!), which was accidentally released by a Chinese scientist and quickly spread across the world via air travel.
In 2014, BIG FINISH PRODUCTIONS released the first four-episode volume of an audio drama expansion of 'Survivors', with CAROLYN SEYMOUR, IAN MCCULLOCH, and LUCY FLEMING reprising their screen roles.
In this 3 episode latest audio instalment, 'Survivors: New Dawn 3' (this time starring CAROLYN SEYMOUR, and LUCY FLEMING), I was (as ever), delighted to be asked to play a fair few cameo roles across the box set, including put upon government minister MIKE FERGUSON.
In 3.1 The Turning Part 1: food shortages threaten the stability of the New Federal Government. Prime Minister Celia Tate clings to power and Robin Page - once a thorn in her side and now a minister - becomes involved in an uprising to depose her.
Once again, the world is changing and the best Abby and Jenny can hope for is to survive.
A really terrific cast deliver the chillingly believable world of 'SURVIVORS' ...
