The Last Train(1999)

The Last Train is a British post-apocalyptic drama series that aired on ITV in 1999. Written by Matthew Graham and produced by Granada Television, the six-part serial follows survivors navigating a devastated world after catastrophe strikes. The show combines tense survival drama with speculative sci-fi elements, exploring how ordinary people adapt to extraordinary circumstances. Though it gained enough attention for Fox to develop an American remake—retitled The Ark—that version never moved past the pilot stage. The Last Train has remained a cult curiosity among UK television enthusiasts; it has never received an official home video release or aired in the United States, making it a rare gem for those seeking classic British science fiction television.
