SEVERAL ACTORS FROM the original Survivors appeared at the Memorabilia event in Birmingham on 19-20 November 2011. Those present were: Ian McCulloch (Greg Preston, S1-S3); Myra Frances (Anne Tranter, S1); James Cosmo (Lenny Carter, The Chosen, S2); Roger Lloyd Pack (Wally, Lights of London S2); Philip Madoc (Max Kershaw, The Chosen, S2).

There was no formal (or, for that matter, informal) Survivors 'panel', screening or other event, but it was notable to have so many Survivors' actors making a joint appearance at a single public event (even if it was largely by coincidence). It was a rare reunion for Myra Frances and Ian McCulloch, who appeared so memorably together in the series one episodes Genesis and Revenge.

It was one of the last public appearances of Philip Madoc, who passed away in March 2012 at that age of 77.

Many thanks indeed to Adrian Hulme for so generously sharing his photos from the event.
