Big Finish's audio adventures for the Survivors are moving toward their endgame, in three new stories set 20 years after the first impact of "the Death" plague, released today.
Carolyn Seymour and Lucy Fleming return to the post-apocalyptic world of Terry Nation's 1970s BBC TV series, Survivors, with a supporting cast including Belinda Lang (2point4 Children, Dear John), Daisy Badger (The Archers, Home Fires) and David Shaw-Parker (This England, Battle Honours).
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.
The Turning Part One
Caught between an increasingly authoritarian Prime Minister and activists determined to bring down the New Federal Government, Jenny struggles to prevent the collapse of everything they've worked so hard to build.
The Turning Part Two
Answering her friend's desperate call for help, Abby returns to find Cambridge in chaos, and Jenny is surrounded by danger and betrayal as a new regime desperately try to restore order.
Samaritans
Escaping Cambridge, Abby and Jenny save the life of an elderly man they find living alone in the woods and gratefully accept his offer of warmth and shelter. But as the cold and dark close in it's not only the animals that come out at night...
Writer and director Ken Bentley said: "It's shocking how relevant Survivors has become. I don't think any of us imagined when we first started working on it that we could live through the events of the past couple of years.
"I think, if we have learned one thing as a species over the past couple of years, it's how fragile everything is. The undoing of everything could come down, very simply, to one person making a silly choice."
Survivors: New Dawn 3 is now available to own as a collector's edition 3-disc CD box set (+ download for just £19.99) or as a digital download only (for just £16.99), exclusively from http://www.bigfinish.com.
