I wish Terry Nation was alive so I could ask him about Survivors, a post-apocalypse scifi he created in 1975. It's unlike his dalek stories or his show Blakes 7
Interesting wrinkles to it. I don't know if I would call it feminist but it gives equal time to womens' experiences and all the villains are men trying to recreate patriarchal structures
I also think the female actors detected this and fleshed out these threads more than the scripts showed maybe?

"Written by the creator of the #Daleks, #TerryNation, the serial starred Hartnell and Purves alongside an early appearance by #NicholasCourtney as Bret Vyon, Adrienne Hill as Katarina, and Kevin Stoney as Mavic Chen.
"Courtney would go on to play recurring character, #TheBrigadier.
"But the 'dark and gritty' 12-part storyline was ordered to be wiped, and more than half of it remains missing."

If they make a chip for this then a shout-out to Blake's 7 and the writer, Terry Nation, for predicting this with Tariel-cells.
Orac, the greatest computer ever (fictional or not), would come later and be able to wirelessly access any PC with a Tariel cell in it.
Which was all of them.
As well as being incredibly powerful, Orac was also an irascible and arrogant AI.

Rewatching the 1975 Terry Nation series Survivors and it’s fascinating to be reminded how white and class ridden British tv was compared to now. Despite that, it’s still one of the greatest pieces of post-apocalyptic drama there is, with a brilliant theme tune and one of the best opening credits in tv. Episode 9, Law and Order, is an absolute gut punch, and if you can get through it without being brought to tears - well, the virus must have got you.

And now in what might become a series (at least as long as I enjoy doing it) is the opportunity for a deep dive into the first Dalek serial - The Daleks aka The Dead Planet aka The Mutants. And this one you can even watch on iplayer in both black and white and frenetic colour!

They say "the past is a foreign country" and I think this is shown to great effect in this unsettling scene from 1975's Survivors.
PS Some times it's pretty obvious who's going to die in each episode 😅

21 December is the anniversary of the first appearance of the Daleks in DoctorWho (1963) and the last episode of Blakes 7 (1981)- the latter known as Gauda Prime Day .
Both originally created by Terry Nation.
If there's a Survivors anniversary today, I'd love to know.
