BBC survivors - who’s gone missing?

I’ve watched the first two episodes of the BBC’s Survivors series and what a revelation it’s been.

I’m not talking about the strange continuity episodes - cars abandoned all over towns and cities but not a single one abandoned on the motorways... where you might find yourself if trying to escape something.

No - it’s the composition of the survivors. It’s all very politically correct; a mosque-going muslim, a black, female health minister, a lapsed muslim, a strong, mysterious black bloke, a female doctor with (I think) an eastern European name, the working class scouser with a dodgy past who will probably come good in the end (but maybe not)...

But no berths for the white middle class blokes (WMCB), it seems.

Not strictly true, actually - they do make an appearance, as the shotgun-wielding Dexter (strange name) - a Daily Mail reader if ever there was one; as the Claret-buried supermarket manager; as the government press officers telling huge porkies to the public; and, of course, as the sinister bloke who’s obviously up to something nasty in the lab.

The only vaguely positive WMCB is an outdoor activities centre manager who (briefly) makes the grade because he’s got good green credentials. And he, like John Prescott, is probably working class in origin...
