NEW SURVIVORS BOOK in 2005!

18th March 2005

It's time for the DVDs to take a backseat for once, as I can now reveal that a new guidebook to Survivors, co-authored by myself and Rich Cross, will be published by Telos Publishing in Autumn 2005.

This new book - provisionally titled 'The End of the World? - will be part of the 'unofficial and unauthorised' range of cult film and TV books produced by Telos. The contents of the book are still being finalised, but 'The End of the World?' will certainly include: detailed production essays about the making of each of Survivors three series; comprehensive analysis and reviews of all 38 episodes of the show; and much more besides. It is expected that the book will include a range of behind-the-scenes photographs taken by cast and crew members - many of which have never been
published before.

The book will be available through high street bookshops and online retailers such as Amazon, as well as direct from Telos. The company does distribute its titles in the US, Canada, Australia and Europe. The cover price has not yet been finalised, but previous books in the series (including the Blake's 7 guidebook 'Liberation') have retailed for ?9.99.

Much more information about the book will be made available in the coming weeks (with a dedicated mini web-site online later in the spring) - but in the meantime, please feel free to post any questions or queries about the project to Bob's Survivors Forum or the Yahoo Survivorstvseries list.

It is planned that the book will be published to broadly coincide with the (hoped for) release of Survivors third series on DVD: although DD Entertainment have yet to confirm that the DVD release is going ahead.

More details on 'The End of the World?' will be available in the new July-December 2005 Telos
catalogue which will soon be available for download from <a href='http://www.telos.co.uk' target='_blank'>http://www.telos.co.uk</a><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

This is excellent news!! I have the Blakes 7 book Telos did and it is superb! Can't wait until this is up for pre-order!

Question for Andy; do you think there will be a special edition hardback (signed) like they did for the early adopters of the Blakes 7 book?


Regards..

Chris

They haven't decided yet. You could email Telos and tell them you would be interested in a special edition!

best wishes

Andy

I also have a copy of Liberation - the guide to Blake's 7 and it's great. Looking forward to "The End Of The World" then!

I agree with you on this, I too welcome a detailed book on this classic Terry Nation 70s series. I myself about to recommence a Saturday afternoon double episode reviewing of season two.

Glad to hear it Chris. The contents are definitely worth waiting for, but then I would say that wouldn't I?! Its a mix of production essays and episode reviews and a lot more besides. I don't want to say too much now in case anything I mention doesn't make it into the final book. Rich and I will be providing more info when we can. It will definitely be worth the 12.99 price tag.

best,

Andy

So far this book is fantastic. Much more detail than I ever expected. Researching this book must having taken great effort indeed.

If you are a fan of Survivors you MUST get this book.

I just wish they had produced a limited edition hardback option.

I cant wait for the book, it's on order now but amazon say there is going to be a delay so it wont be here untill after chrimbo.

By the sounds of it though, it's definately worth waiting for <!--emo&:)-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]<!--endemo-->
