As long as the quality remains high, I'm happy with this.

Out of interest, did people who pre-ordered get an email advising them of this change? What if they are not on Twitter - putting it on there and not on the BF site (other than the product page) seems rather poor communication / customer care.

Could this get Survivors in the the title? Just saying Series 8 isn’t highly indicative.

That sucks, this might be my favourite range—I don’t want to wait! But if it’s what they need to get it right, so be it. I’d rather they took the time to do good work and wait a bit, than see a halfassed product rushed out the door to meet an arbitrary deadline. Out of interest, did people who pre-ordered get an email advising them of this change? What if they are not on Twitter - putting it on there and not on the BF site (other than the product page) seems rather poor communication / customer care. No email notification that I’ve seen, no.

Hope the cast are all fine and healthy. That's always my first worry when a regular scheduled title with veteran actors gets a sudden, lengthy delay, but hopefully any such concerns will prove completely unfounded...

Could be location based scheduling difficulties, like some actors being on holiday or out of the country for other reasons. For Doctor Who anything with Mark Strickson has to be scheduled when he’s in the UK, as he’s based in New Zealand.

I thought Strickson moved back to the UK a couple of years ago, or did I imagine that?
But yes, I know it could be something like that, and I hope it is.

Interesting to see Peter Grant finally appearing. Glad Jackie is not appearing, she is one tiresome character.
I had hoped Greg would not be dead but it appears he is being left that way. In fairness a second miracle resurrection after Peter Grant's might strain credibility.
What Survivors lacks now is strong male characters (George Watkins doesn't quite fit that bill). I know that sentiment is rather counter cultural right now. Jimmy Garland is still alive in the fictional universe and BF have the rights ... so why not?

Survivors used to be my favourite ongoing non-DW range but i feel the last two series, especially 7, have really lost their way. I will probably get 8 to see if they correct their course. I would have been bummed out by this delay at one time. Now i am quite nonchalant about it

Now i am quite nonchalant about it As someone who just today finished the TV series and BF series to date, in order, for the first time, I somewhat agree. The BF series suffers from having such limited rights. It seems odd for all these TV characters to never appear in the BF series. Charles, McAlister, Alex, etc. never appearing so they’re always sending other new characters to do their work. If they’re never going to get the rights to non-Nation characters, I hope Greg’s alive and they get the original trio back together.

I hope that the final resolution to the Abby/Peter story is as grim and emotionally crushing as the end of the Terry Nation Survivors (audio)book.
