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?

"Let's put it this way, if your character was feeling a little poorly on page ten then it was probably a good time to give your agent a call."

- Roger Monk talking about the actors anxiously reading each new script of Survivors to see if they still had a job next week. :D :D
