A modern remake of the thrilling 1970's drama! Set in the present day, Survivors takes place in the aftermath of a devastating virus which wipes out most of the world's population. What would we do? 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 center of the drama.
Over a month ago we
had the heads-up that both the original 1975 BBC
Survivors program and its 2008 remake version would be coming to DVD soon. Now the BBC, along with distributor Warner Home Video, have officially announced these titles. 2008's
Survivors - Complete Seasons 1 and 2 will be a 5-DVD set running 733 minutes long, with all 12 episodes shown so far. The cast includes Max Beesley (
Hotel Babylon), Julie Graham (
Bonekickers) and Freema Agyeman (
Doctor Who).
An
online trailer is available to view for the show. Bonus material on this DVD release consists of a Making-of Featurette, Character Profiles, an Effects Reel and an Easter Egg for you to find. Video is widescreen, audio is English Stereo, and subtitles are in English. Cost is $59.98 SRP in the USA, and CA$74.98 SRP in Canada. Look for this release to rise from the ashes on
April 27th. Here's the package art:
