[Television] I Survived A Zombie Apocalypse BBC3

For all you non-Englanders BBC3 has started a new reality TV show where a bunch of people go to a zombie infested area and have to survive seven nights. It looks like it is filmed in a Zombie Run Experience type thing up North. Many of them are up North so this is why I think this.

Don't watch it.

It's a waste of time and absolutely shocking.

To be honest, the idea is good, very good. But during the opening it tells us that the zombie apocalypse started through dodgy WiFi which is a bit of an embarrassing reason. Surely they could have thought of something better. Secondly, they out right stole ideas from their zombie predecessors. They claim that if you find yourself in a zombie apocalypse head for:
A) A Prison - clearly stolen from the TV Show 'The Walking Dead' or
B) A Shopping Mall - taken straight out of George A. Romero's 'Dawn of the Dead'

Come on guys, at least put some thought into it.

Finally, the thing that put me right off the show was the people. They could not have thrown together a worse bunch of people. They are all so stupid it hurts. One girl didn't know what bedding was or what the word 'agile' meant. One, didn't know what a bunk was. One guy claimed that girls chat him up more than he chats them up and one guy boasted how he camped outside for ten nights to meet Lady Gaga. Each to their own I guess. It is embarrassing that BBC3 got these bunch of morons to represent the width and breadth of England. I'm embarrassed, severely embarrassed. The only normal person was the older, blonde lady, she seemed the only decent one in there.

It's sad because I reckon I would have really enjoyed this show, but the bunch of fools on there didn't do it any justice. I think it's safe to say I will not be watching episode 2.
