Anyone watching BBC1 last night would've seen Apocalyptic drama to unfold in their new series, Survivors. Well, I say new series, it's a remake of the original series, first broadcast in 1975, and created by Terry Nation (aka / the man what created the Dalek). The original Survivors is regarded as a classic. Which just makes it all the more disappointing that the new version is really not very good at all

The whole world is ravaged by a super-flu virus, right, and that must surely lead to some kind of exciting Shenanigans, with rioting and looting and all kinds of the dark side of humanity on display, until the ones who were immune (the 'Survivors' of the title) get their act together, and repopulate the planet. or something.

No..
What we get is 1 minute and 44 seconds of someone with an increasingly impenetrable Irish accent reading dull dialogue about how the world we knew is over and mobile phones are now useless, really in a wooden way. And then this is the battery, on the woman he's talking at's dual sim tv mobile phone , conveniently, 30 seconds after he said it would.
That was annoying. It was not even as if it was a brand new, recent china tv mobile phones, either, it's a Nokia N82. Do not get me wrong, it's a gorgeous phone, but it's not the newest kid on the block. I'm willing to bet the BBC (thanks to the unique way it's funded) splurged on a job lot of cheap pay as you go dual standby tv phone , and bought about three top-end phones, two of which nicked Spooks, before the crew Survivors could finish writing their script out on the back of a fag packet ...
I mean I was not expecting a Nokia N96 or anything, but digital tv phone released in the last couple of months would've been nice.
All in all, then, Survivors was a massive disappointment, did not even come close to the memory of the original Terry Nation, and not even in the mobile phones it could keep my interest for long. Oh, and it had the single obtuse decision any character in any fiction has ever made, when the daft moo with the now dead mobile phone (played by the hugely Overrated Julie Graham) decided the best way to open a glass door was closed to drive her perfectly serviceable and fully working car into it (thus Wrecking it and leaving her stranded on foot), instead of, like, using a brick ...
Be smarter than the woman in Survivors dizzy (though I suspect the virus itself was more intelligent than her character), and get a newer phone ... the Nokia N96 grave today (warning: probably will not be much use if a super-flu virus DOES actually wipe out humanity)!
