Survivors by Adrian Hodges returns to Britain's BBC One for a second series in January 2010, picking up moments after the thrilling cliff-hanger to season one. In the first new episode, Abby (Julie Graham) and her mismatched family of Survivors are in disarray, now struggling not just with the difficulties of day-to-day life amidst the ruins of the post-virus apocalypse, but also with the threat of other emerging communities and the machinations of the sinister Lab.

A revival of the 1970s environmental thriller series Doomwatch could be in the works, weirdandbeard has learned.
