If the world as we know it came to an end, what would you do? Our modern world exists on a knife edge, but if the worst happened, the fight for survival won't be in jungles, forests or desert islands. It'll be in the towns and cities we call home. In this bold and ambitious social experiment, Channel 4 is sending a group of ordinary people to a jaw dropping, real world location - an abandoned town that bears all the hallmarks of being ravaged by an apocalyptic event. They'll have to survive for 28 days without running water, heating, or electricity. They'll need to scavenge for food and supplies, reusing and repurposing anything they find but only if they can muster skills and wherewithal to do it. Nothing here comes easy, and in the face of scarce resources will this unlikely group of strangers band together or fall apart?
Reality challenge in which two groups of ordinary people must survive in a mock-up post-apocalyptic environment using the limited resources to hand. Chaos ensues as the first group enters from the West, while across town, in the East, a second group hunts for food. When the two factions realise they are not alone, conflict quickly erupts.
War breaks out amid the urban ruins. with Westsider Dean confronting Eastsiders Steven and Kiera. Over at the Westside's HQ, a posse of Eastsiders demand the return of their stolen chickens, but Paralympian Kelly keeps them at bay. The Westside survivors enjoy a bumper meal of fried Spam, but soon regret it when an Eastside delegation shows up carrying baseball bats. With morale low at the Wests, a disaffected Brooke weighs her options, while Keira and Kyra have an explosive confrontation at Eastside HQ with theatre director Bertie.
