The Word On... Survivors, BBC1
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference."I just watched the whole of this on BBCi. Thank God I no longer pay for a TV licence. This is leftist propaganda. The original Seventies series was much better, written by good writers like Terry Nation and Jack Ronder and Ian McCulloch. This show has gone the same way as 'Doctor Who'. If you're under 30, you won't know what the hell I'm on about." - airscrew1, youtube.com
"I imagine the series will follow a similar pattern to '28 Days Later', 'The Day After Tomorrow' and so on. But the characters are what make it watchable; it'll be interesting to see how they fare." - Lynn, - primetime.unrealitytv.co.uk
"Once it got going things looked up, apart from the clunky dialogue. It's got pretty much the entire BBC cast of regulars; if you're not in 'Little Dorrit', you're in 'Survivors'. I'll give it a chance. Hell, I stuck with 'Bonekickers' for four weeks." - John Beresford, tvscoop.tv
"There is the interesting possibility that 'Survivors' could turn into a utopian rather than dystopian study, and the bio lab sub-plot is intriguing. However, two episodes in, 'Survivors' is shaping up to be a dumbed-down, disappointing remake of the 1970s classic. " - Ben Austwick, quietearth.us
