Survivors - 3.1 Manhunt

Very confusing episode as the survivors and we are led to be very suspicious of Miedel and his drug manufacturing operation, only to have Colonel Clifford explain everything at the end. The skeleton is plastic and Miedel is a kindly man who fled from the Nazis in 1936.

The moral seems to be that Charles was wrong to be suspicious, but one can hardly blame him given his experiences at the hands of all the various people who've tried to exploit him and his friends.

The bit where Jenny, not being party to the explanation, shoots one of Clifford's men was shocking, I thought the episode was about to take a very dark turn, but the dead (?) man's colleagues are kind enough to overlook the matter.

Good to see Greg's phone idea in operation, even if we don't see Greg.

The settlement is said to have moved (as proposed in the previous series) but then later it appears that some of them are still at Whitecross. Lizzie has regenerated.

Dating: 6 months have passed, so it's January 1978 approximately.
