Several extracts from the original Survivors<\/em> first series episode Genesis<\/em> feature in Dominic Sandbrook’s new BBC 2 documentary TV series The ’70s<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In the third of four episodes, which focuses on the mid-1970s [\u2018Goodbye Great Britain 75-77\u2019], Sandbrook makes reference to the resonances between the widespread ‘pessimism and paranoia’ gripping Britain at the time and the post-apocalyptic preoccupations of Survivors<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Sandbrook’s commentary (33ms 20s \u2013 35ms 04s) is illustrated with extracts from Genesis<\/em> (showing Anne Tranter’s first meeting with Greg Preston; and Abby Grant’s encounter with Arthur Wormley) and an oddly irrelevant aerial shot of some moorland (sourced from some other show).<\/p>\n

Viewers in the UK can catch the episode<\/strong><\/a> on the BBC iPlayer service (until 9.59pm on Monday, 21 May 2012)<\/p>\n
