Two words to describe 'Survivors'

"Bloody brilliant."

Last night I went to a screening of the extended 90-minute premiere of BBC One's new apocalyptic drama Survivors feeling slightly worried.

Slightly worried that perhaps I'd built my hopes up too much and that I might fall victim to the very hype I'd helped create. Disappointment seemed inevitable, and I would spend the latter part of the evening crying into a bowl of cold miso soup.

As it turns out, I needn't have worried. Survivors - or at least, the premiere of Survivors - is great. It ain't faultless, it ain't the best thing ever to have graced the small screen but you can safely allow yourself to get excited without fear of being let down.

Unfortunately, dastardly press embargoes prevent me from saying much more until nearer the programme's transmission, which is likely to be another month yet. But watch this space!
