The series' main actors included Carolyn Seymour (Abby), Lucy Fleming (Jenny), Ian McCulloch (Greg), and Denis Lill (Charles). Popular writer Terry Nation (whose work included many scripts for Doctor Who) created the series, but he left the show after the first series due to disputes with producer Terence Dudley. All series were broadcast on Wednesday evenings on BBC 1, from April 1975 to June 1977.
The programme ran for three series and 38 episodes (series 1 and 2 comprised 13 episodes each, the third series just 12 budget cuts and technical problems reduced the planned last double episode to a single, as some scenes were lost during shooting). Referred to as "The Death", the plague kills approximately 4,999 out of every 5,000 human beings on the planet within a matter of weeks of being released. It concerns the plight of a group of people who have survived an apocalyptic plague pandemic, which was accidentally released by a Chinese scientist and quickly spread across the world via air travel.
