The print TV listings magazines have, between them, previewed Survivors second series extensively. Coverage includes:
- ‘The viral countdown’ (Total TV Guide)
- ‘The last action heroes’ (TV & Satellite Week)
- ‘Apocalypse now?’ (TV Quick)
- ‘Abby’s lab terror’ (What’s On TV)
- ‘Pick of the Day: Survivors’ (Radio Times)
- ‘Survivors’ (TV Easy)
- ‘Pick of the Day: Survivors (TV Times)
The Radio Times once again takes the opportunity to sustain a proud thirty-five year long tradition by not granting Survivors front cover billing (and this time round not even dignifying the show with a feature). In sharp contrast, Total TV Guide makes Survivors second series its front cover lead (as it did with series one back in 2008).

What a terrible picture
Really good to see Survivors get cover billing.
It’s a shame, though, that they couldn’t have come up with a better picture. It looks like a bunch of random pictures stuck together by a work experience kid. Max looks like he’s falling over and Paterson isn’t even facing the camera! Doesn’t really do the show justice.
