UK Zombie TV Show-Dead Set
Has anyone seen this 5 episode series about a zombie outbreak outside the UK Big Brother house? Lots of blood, language, and a little bit of nudity. I've watched it twice already as it really captures how a zombie outbreak could spread so quickly and how society would break down.
Here is the write up about the series: BIG BROTHER gets a NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD makeover in horror spin-off DEAD SET. The action takes place during a fictional series of the reality TV show, with stories unfolding both on camera in the 'house' and with the staff behind the scenes. When a zombie outbreak occurs the contestants are blissfully unaware inside their secure little bubble, a bubble which soon becomes a fortress when outsiders seek refuge from the walking undead. Inevitably, the infection spreads into the 'house', turning the popularity contest into a scene of carnage, with cast and crew uniting to escape the ultimate 'eviction'. Jaime Winstone (KIDULTHOOD) stars as production-runner in peril Kelly, with Andy Nyman (SEVERENCE) as hotheaded producer Patrick, Kevin Eldon (HYPERDRIVE) as a disgruntled housemate, and even a surprise appearance from Davina herself. The innovative show is the creation of writer and cult television satirist Charlie Brooker (SCREENWIPE, NATHAN BARLEY) so be prepared for some dark humour, as pop-culture turns zombie and feeds on its own kind. This site reviews each episode but I wouldn't check it out until you see the episodes first as the reviewer talks about what happens in each episode. http://www.denofgeek.com/television/...episode_1.html Definately worth checking out if your a zombie movie fan.

Thanks for the link. I did a search but nothing came up.

It was pretty good, written by Charlie Brooker (Charlie Brookers Screenwipe), lots of gore for something that aired on television. It was a pretty normal zombie story with little bits of comedy throughout. You can buy it from amazon uk.
