Product Description
Product Description
One of the standout televisual highlights of recent years, 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.
This guidebook, though unofficial and unauthorised, serves as a comprehensive guide to the new Survivors and includes:
- A detailed behind-the-scenes section on the making of the new series
- In-depth synopses and reviews of all of the episodes from Series 1 and 2
- Cast and crew interview material
- An exploration of previous attempts to revive Survivors
- Similarities and differences between the new Survivors and the original series
- An examination of Terry Nation's original novel on which the new series is partly based
- A photographic guide to the first series's filming locations
- Exclusive behind-the-scenes production shots.
If you enjoyed the series and want to find out more, this book is a `must buy'!
