Generation Z on Channel 4 stars former EastEnders legend Anita Dobson (see the creepy first look picture above), The Royle Family’s Sue Johnston and Paul Benthall (The World’s End) as OAP zombies leading the apocalypse from a grey, forgotten town called Dambury.
Written by Ben Wheatley, the man behind Kill List and In The Earth, the horror series sees the dull town thrown into chaos when a chemical spill turns the residents of a care home into zombies with an insatiable hunger for raw flesh. The zombie hoard then spreads to Dambury’s teens, who alongside dealing with complex relationship issues, their looming A-levels and teenage angst, must now battle with their parents and grandparents just to stay alive.
