Three and a half weeks ago...

This place is creepy as hell.

...two groups were dropped...

Christ! ..at the end of the world.

This looks like a level from Grand Theft Auto.

We're in, act, gone.

With only limited resources...

I never thought I would be stealing.

...the two factions quickly turned on each other...

They've got baseball bats. These guys are not joking.

You stole some of our stuff. We know it was you.

We can't tolerate stealing.

Oh, God! I can't deal with you guys anymore.

...until a truce was finally formed.

We go off in harmony. Peace. And then it's done.

Done.

Good.

THUNDER CLAPS Whoa!

Two new survivors arrived in Riverside...

Where will you be residing? Hopefully here.

Am I welcome? It's a no from me.

...and when Dean made a discovery under the East Side HQ...

Oh, BLEEP!

...he returned with West Sider, Freddie on a secret night raid.

Did you hear that? What was that?

We got 14 Budweisers, four mac and cheese,

three noodles, 16 kidney beans.

Nobody on either the East or the West know

that Dean and Freddie are attempting to steal food...

So much. So much.

...from the basement of the school.

METALLIC BANG Did you hear that?

No, I'll have a look. Shall we have a look?

I'm gonna have a look.

This way.

Shit.

What was that?

Keep moving. Keep moving, keep moving. Let's go.

Oh, my God!

It's snowing.

Lovely.

Now, if there are any Nazi submarine bases in the vicinity,

they're up next.

DEAN LAUGHS

We win, bitch!

I think we deserve this one.

I propose a toast.

Yeah. Take what you can and give nothing back.

Hear, hear.

Absolutely sensational.

The blood is flowing.

The excitement is high.

Operation Badger is going perfectly to plan.

Ah! That's the second best beer I've had today.

I never thought American piss would taste so sweet.

THEY LAUGH

But there's no way in hell I'm telling them how I got it.

Breakfast!

Unaware of the stash of food that was sitting under their noses...

Why the pickled eggs, though? Because that's what's for breakfast.

It's all we have. Oh, God.

...the East Side are down to the last of their supplies.

Probably won't eat a whole one.

Shall I half them, then? Thank you.

Oh my God! It's disgusting. It's like an eyeball.

Oh, go on, then.

Oh, my God!

It's not the worst thing I've had in my mouth but far from the best.

I'm seriously questioning my life choices.

I've worked for the ambulance service for 18 years now.

I've seen some horrible things.

I've trained to deal with some pretty spicy scenarios.

There are certain days when you look at the carnage and you think,

"This is my circus, and these are very much my monkeys".

Your bum goes 50p 20p for a sec, do you know what I mean?

Don't do it.

I want to push myself.

Get my hands dirty.

I'm not here for a holiday.

If it was there for holiday, I'd have gone to Tenerife.

Oh, sorry. I've got to sit down a minute.

I'm quite tired.

It's difficult to keep your morale up.

Yeah. It's hard.

Really hard.

Gotta fake it till you make it, though.

Mmm. Smells good chef. We could do with Dean being back.

Like, you don't want to eat them cold.

Where's Dean?

Right.

Following the raid on the east side last night...

...West Sider, Dean is recovering the stash he hid

just 200 metres away from the laundry.

Thank God!

I know I'm a lot.

I've been told that my whole life.

My personality is like anchovies.

Where's the red bag?

It's either you really like anchovies

or you hate them and anyone that likes them is an idiot.

I'd rather be an anchovy than, like, vanilla ice cream.

Shit's got to be fun.

And what's more fun than running a fucking bar?

Right? Last night was the heist.

Today, I have to bring it to the group

as if I've just found the loot.

DEAN SHOUTS

I'm gonna need a hand.

What have you got?

Having hatched the plan together,

Freddie is the only other member of the West Side,

aware of the true source of the goods.

Dean and I decided to keep this a secret from our group.

It is unlikely that the rest of the group

would support this action in peace time.

Oh, my God! Look at this!

They wouldn't be so daring.

Look! Well done, Dean! It's a full peanut butter. What?

12 cans of Budweiser makes total hero.

It was like he'd scored the winning goal of the World Cup.

You legend, mate. So much food and such a good feeling.

Come on, let's carry it back. He's a hero. Surprise!

What is that?

Two peanut butters.

Mac and cheese. Budweiser.

You found all this?

Sit down, everyone, let's have a little chat.

Right, I've been dying to go to these retirement villages.

I've been saying it a hundred times.

I've still never been there, actually.

Well... Who went. By myself.

There was a whole house, just, bang, bang, bang.

We haven't been there. Right next to the school.

Oh, my God!

So they didn't have any of this? None of this is theirs.

Dean found an incredible pile of food

that felt literally like Christmas.

It's so great to see all that,

and to know that we're not going to be starving for a little while.

Shall we crack a beer open while we're having a chat?

Maybe in the coming days we can have a joint dinner on the east and west.

It's a surprise. Yeah.

Yeah. Oh, my God, they're gonna love it. Yeah.

They're gonna be shocked.

I don't run off applauses, but I like to make people happy

and usually I do that by cooking, but this time I did it by thieving.

Roger, Roger. Roger, Roger.

I need to confer with Freddie.

There's no way we can have a first dinner, a peaceful dinner

between the East and the West,

and we don't swing our fucking dicks.

How much firewood is there?

Not very much.

On the East Side...

I know we all want to chill out and sit down,

but can we go and get firewood?

It's nearly all gone.

Yeah, shall we head out. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Low morale is causing a problem for one of the group.

Laura, are you feeling all right?

Normally, in the outside world, I am loud.

I can be a bit much for people.

And I do have an off switch, I'm just not really sure where it is.

It was round the back somewhere, but I've lost it.

If you see me go quiet, then that's the time to worry

cos there'll be something going on.

I'm worried about Laura.

She's not feeling the best.

But everyone has no energy.

I have no energy but we're here because,

what else are we going to do?

You know? I just think that she's got in her head a little bit.

The Apocalypse fucks you up, man.

How are you feeling? You good?

Oh, here we go.

It's painful.

It is.

I'm really struggling.

Just... Just don't want to be here.

I'm actually so worried about her.

But maybe we just need to have a conversation about it.

It has to be all out in the open and it has to be effective.

To address Laura's low mood...

I'm hoping that this will help.

...psychologist, Kiera, has come up with a plan.

I'm hoping that she comes back into the group

a better version of herself

that we all, you know, love to have around.

Guys, can I have everyone sitting down, please?

I would like to have a family chat.

Now is the time we should get this out in the open.

We are worried about you, Laura.

I am just trying my best with what I've got.

I've not once sat here going, "I can't be arsed."

I am genuinely doing everything that I can.

I know. It's not easy in here.

In my role as a mother and my role as a paramedic,

I'm quite often the one looking after everybody else,

but I'm not always the best at looking after myself and taking

what I need for myself.

While I'm, hopefully, looking after other people and supporting them.

I would like the same back towards me, as well.

I feel like a lot of my personality I've kind of smothered in here.

Yeah.

I'm not anything like my true self here.

Sorry.

We don't want you to feel like that.

I don't know, I just shut down completely.

I want you to get your personality back cos I want you to be lifted up.

All right, let's go, Laura.

The only thing you'll need is a bat.

The plan today is for us to do a little rage room.

Let's find a room with lots of TVs.

As a psychologist, I've learnt so much about the psyche of people.

My strengths are in resolving conflict.

We will have like, some therapy sessions.

I will be that annoying person that's like,

"Everyone, let's stop for a minute and take five deep breaths."

All right, Laura, I want you to take the first swing.

Let all of your frustration out.

No! It's...

Mate, they don't make them like they used to, do they?

Sorry.

Laura, you can do this.

Oh, my God! I wish I wasn't so weak.

You're not weak, Laura, you're strong.

Let's smash some shit up!

Get everything out.

Yes, girl! Throw it!

Yes!

WHOOPING AND CHEERING

Yes, girl.

I just feel amazing, now.

You just get, like, this burst of adrenaline.

All it took was a bit of rage.

So good.

Yeah. Thank you.

Can I come and give you a hug, please?

Thank you. I appreciate you.

Thank you.

Usually I'm really expensive, like people come to see me and it's like,

it's not cheap, so I mean, it's free here.

If people want it, like, come use me.

I'm like an escort.

Oh!

My inner Zen has returned.

And breathe.

You killed it, girl. Cheers, Queen.

I just feel like I need a little cheeky glass of Prosecco.

All right, let's not push your luck, Laura.

We're in The Apocalypse, all right?

All right, babe. This is all I can do for you.

Let's get out of here.

The motor's running low on petrol.

So we go and look at cars to see if there's any petrol in the tanks.

Syphon petrol out. Right.

Over on the West Side...

Right. Let's go and suck some diesel, hey?

...diesel mechanic, Matty ,is taking Bernie on a hunt for vital resources.

I've never done anything like this in the whole of my life.

Their plan is to find and syphon any remaining petrol...

Let's just go. Work our way down there.

...from abandoned cars around the town.

Uh, we were running low,

and if we ran out of petrol in the lawnmower,

it would just put an end to a lot of stuff.

This doesn't look a bad car, does it?

They'll carefully use suction to draw petrol into the far end

of a clear tube.

There you go.

Then stop once they see it coming through

and let gravity take over.

So I'll know when I start sucking, if it's petrol in there. Yes.

Matty keeps an expert eye on Bernie,

as ingesting even a small amount of petrol would be highly dangerous.

Hey! Let's go! Woo hoo!

All right, stop this.

Put it in the tank.

Full flow. Oh, well, there's your first.

So, now I know how to do this, uh, Manchester'd better watch out.

Yeah. Gangsta granny!

Gangsta granny's about.

I'll never have to buy fuel ever again.

Oh, my God. What's it come to?

But, yeah, another new skill for me.

Thank you very much.

Drive the lawnmower everywhere. Good job.

Yeah. Bloody hell.

I hope I never see another walnut again in my life.

Let's go.

To address the lack of food...

Gotta find something. Have you checked this bus?

...East Siders, Steven, Kiera and Bertie

are headed to the outskirts of town.

I'm at the point now where we're desperate for food.

We've got... We've got people flagging.

We can only go out for one two hours a day.

They're having to have naps, you know.

It's clear that the blood pressure is low.

Like it's just desperate now.

To assist them on their search...

Oh! Steve! Hi! Guys, the West are here.

We'll help you.

...they've enlisted Freddie, Ioan, and Kelly from the west Side.

I would say the East Side, not as good as looting as we are

and, sort of, waste time sitting in their warm shelter

rather than going and finding things.

I think we're probably the stronger team.

We're thriving right now,

but I'll do anything for anyone, whether they're on my team or not.

Extending deep into the bowels of the town...

Shit. Shit. ..the psychiatric ward

is the last major unexplored building in Riverside.

This place looks spooky.

Why don't we just split up. No way, Kelly, that's how people die.

I'm already hearing noises.

Why am I doing this? Because we need food.

This used to be like a psych ward,

and the patients in here were biting people and crazy.

What was that? Is someone here?

Oh, my God! I shit myself.

Oh, I don't like this.

This is horrible.

Oh! Did you see that? What?

Just running around that corner. You're lying.

Kelly, I swear to God. Me and you're not gonna be friends ever again.

Oh, my God! It went up there.

Wait. Hang on.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! What's this? What? There's a room here.

What's through there? What? Yeah, it's barricaded, look.

How are we gonna get in here?

Does that say tunnel?

I don't think we should go.

We have to do it because we've got no food.

Unknown to the survivors...

Oh, God.

...beneath the town lies a network of tunnels containing

steam pipes once used to heat its major buildings.

Look how long they are. That goes right under our house.

I can't believe that we're doing this.

It is the portal to hell, but we just got to keep going.

I know that this was a man's idea.

This is why women live longer. We don't usually do shit like this.

What's that? Is that a door? It is a door.

It is a door. I want to go back.

I think it's too late for that. Oh, no.

I think we should see what's in there.

Open it, open it! Oh my God!

Is that a door?

It is a door. It is a door.

For over two hours...

All right, guys, be ready.

Be ready.

...a coalition of East and West Siders...

Open it, open it!

...have been exploring the town's tunnels in search of supplies.

A WOMAN SCREAMS

What is it? Oh, no. It's like a weird building.

Is that a cage?

It's a prison cell.

Underground, the group have crossed much of Riverside.

Oh my God, look at the scratching on the walls.

They've ended up in a prison

on the west of town.

This is spooky.

Guys, come here. Come here.

Guys, come this way. Quick!

Oh, my gosh! What is that? Military aid.

There's a whole box.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

I'm so excited to see what's in that box

but I hate it in here. It's freaky.

There are cells.

To be honest, I'm staying close to Ioan, because he's got the axe

and he's a big, scary man.

Yes, Ioan. Well done, mate. Fuck!

Yes, boy! Go on, Riverside.

Oh, my God! Oh, my God. Holy shit! Is that ration packs?

What is that?

They're signal flares.

We found a lot of stuff and split it in half.

We took half. They kept half.

Let's grab all the stuff and get out. Yeah. Come on.

Guys, follow me.

Moving forward with the West,

I think hopefully we're just going to be working a bit more together.

Where are we?

We've got a little idea to repay the debt,

so hopefully it will be fruitful.

Thank you so much, West Side.

It's been a pleasure. Bye, guys.

At the East Side School...

I'm gonna look for something fashion-showy.

Things we can create to make the atmosphere.

...preparations are underway for a special event.

They plan to invite the West as a thank you

for their help in the tunnels yesterday.

Oh, hello!

We're thinking, what can we do that doesn't cost us anything?

Apart from using our hands, body and mind.

I really just want to perform for them.

Yeah. I like that.

What is that? Is that a microphone?

Oh my gosh!

MICROPHONE BLEEPING

Hello?

Oh, my God!

Mmmm. Peanut butter. Absolutely delicious.

At the laundry, the West Siders

are enjoying their newfound food supply.

Very, very nice.

With only two of them aware of its true origin.

It's so good.

What some peanut butter can do for you, you know?

Mm. Uh, while we're in this epic moment.

I've been working on a project

for a very special member of our group,

who I would like to start off

by saying initially, I was very suspicious of.

But, uh, Bernie,

I have come to love you, so I've made you a little present.

What is it?

Oh.

And we've got the Bernie Riverside on the front as well. Oh, my God!

And then the Gangster Gran...

And just to accessorise it,

I found a charming pair of sunglasses.

SHE SCREAMS

Oh! Oh, Freddie! I was absolutely blown over.

They were very wary of me when I came in,

especially with the age difference.

It's been a pleasure having you here with us, you know that.

Although I found it a little bit hard,

I've enjoyed every single minute of it.

So yeah, I'm made up.

It means so much to me.

That's it. Freddie that's so nice. Thank you, Freddie.

Thank you.

Right. We ready? Let's go.

We're off to the fashion show in the East Wing.

The fashion show will be the first time

the whole of Riverside have gathered in one of their homes.

I'm sure my mum and dad used to have this carpet.

I hate you.

My bum is on display.

She's going to show Freddie her foof.

This is when you know you've hit rock bottom.

Look what the cat dragged in.

You look like a bunch of serial killers.

Nice to all get together, have a little shindig.

Right, come on in, guys, then.

I'll show you to your seats.

Welcome to Riverside Memorial School,

the fashion show of the decade serving slay.

He's always giving body.

Here comes Stevie.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERS

Oh, my days!

It's getting hot in here.

Next up, Riverside's youngest model, Kyra.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERS

What have we signed up to? This is crazy.

Give it up for Kiera!

APPLAUSE AND CHEERS

Keira looks absolutely stunning.

I'd remind myself to close my mouth when she walked in.

Give it up for Alex.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERS

I think Alex's outfit was my favourite.

Let's go, Scotty!

SCREAMING AND CHEERING

It's been just unbelievable.

Big round of applause for the East Side.

CHEERING AND SCREAMS

We got on great with the East Side.

Spirits were really high.

How lovely!

It went really well.

That was so much fun. Thank you guys so much.

Guys, the West Side, they gave us this scroll.

Next morning at the school...

Hear ye, hear ye.

A royal invitation.

...Dean's plan for a riverside dinner is being put into action.

So the West Side request

your presence for the first apocalyptic banquet.

Dress code, masquerade and warm clothes.

RSVP. Mwah!

That sounds nice. It does say banquet.

So that insinuates that they're going to be cooking.

There'd better be food. Scott, what mask are you wearing?

I'm not wearing a mask. Oh.

I'm not a posh twat.

Oh!

Ussh!

Time to get the gimp mask out.

Really looking forward to going down to the West

for their masquerade banquet.

We're all just mates now and that's super lovely.

We're all coming together the way our community should be.

The groundwork's been laid.

The trust is there and

I'm glad there's no animosity, now.

Keira's going to be next to Freddie, then.

I'd love for her to be next to Freddie.

At the laundry...

This looks like the best dinner party

after the Buckingham Palace.

This is the next one.

...preparations are underway ahead of welcoming

the East Side for dinner this evening.

We've all been looking for tinned food,

so my plan is open up every tin,

cook the tins as a mixture and then with the mix,

go back into the tins and serve the empty tin on the table.

15 tins for 15 people.

Dean is using the spoils of his raid on the East Side

for tonight's menu.

I'm going to let everyone know about the truth.

This food was right beneath their feet.

You have to show everyone the hand.

I can't wait for it to all fall into place.

And so far, so good.

Oh, my God! It looks amazing.

With the other side, the newfound niceties and friendships

and alliances,

we can pretend it's all fun and fine.

It's peace but it's... it's on tenterhooks.

There may be a few nasty gems to be uncovered

that may excite everyone again.

Nice.

Very nice.

Are you ready? Let's go.

I've got no idea what this looks like.

Gay Zorro. Gay Zorro? Sorry, a more gay Zorro.

HE LAUGHS

I'll take it.

They're here. Hello?

Hello. Here you go, guys. Hello? Hello? Hello. Welcome.

Welcome to The Laundry. Come on in.

Because it is freezing inside and out.

Guys! It looks so good.

Oh my God, look at this.

Hi, Celia! Wow. Welcome!

You look beautiful.

Take a seat. It's working, isn't it?

They've gone to a lot of effort.

We've got our own little place mats

with our names on them, and they've got a nice big table.

It's like a big Christmas banquet.

Are they all here? Yeah. Service. Here we go.

SCREAMING AND CHEERING

Howdy, howdy.

We have a medley of vegetables. Oh, my gosh!

Braised Brussels sprouts. Oh!

White potatoes, sweet potato.

A little bit of peanut butter.

This is so nice, guys. Thank you.

A big thank you to the chef for cooking.

Dig in. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Oh! Oh, it's so good.

Thank you, guys.

Oh, it's good.

This is great.

It kind of looked like puke but you had a hearty portion and,

yeah, I'm impressed.

Oh, not a bad day night.

Now I've got a full belly.

My stomach is about to explode, so it's good.

CLINKING

Oh!

Ladies and gentlemen,

thank you all very much for coming this evening.

It is a great honour to host everyone here tonight.

Around this table we're all friends

and it's important that friends don't keep secrets.

Which is why I propose a game of confessions.

Oh, God, OK.

Under each of your place mats, you'll find a little bit of paper.

On it I would like you to write one confession

from your time in Riverside.

We'll then put all of them in a hat.

Read them out one by one.

And guess who did what?

Oh, my God!

Right. The first confession.

Bertie isn't the only East Sider who found a toothbrush.

I've had one since day two. Who is it?

Girl, it's not me. I think it's Lou.

It's me! Yes.

Gift shop.

Yes!

I'm sorry, guys.

That's all right. Next one.

This one says I, along with another member of my team,

found and ate a big tin of pineapples

in golden syrup and hid the evidence.

Sorry. Sad face. Who did that?

It was fucking delicious, though.

Oh! Freddie. It's Freddie, yeah.

I'm gonna say, Dean.

It was me.

THEY GASP

And if the other person would reveal themselves, it was...

Oh, you bastard!

No way! What?

Pineapple slices.

It's so good. It tastes like heaven.

What's wrong with you?

Little shitbags, I thought we shared everything.

The bastards!

One time I ran out of toilet paper, so I used Dean's sock.

LAUGHING

Kelly! It's Kelly.

Oh, my God! Gross.

It wasn't a number two, it was another one.

Oh, God! I love that.

Moving forward. Are we done yet?

Is that it? No, I think Dean. Dean's got the last one.

Well, I do have a confession.

Oh, my gosh! God, here we go.

I think it's worth a bit more than a bit of pen and paper.

Oh!

Oh, Dean, what have you done?

I've got a feeling I'm gonna hate him after this.

Well, I do have a confession. Oh, my gosh!

Oh, God. Here we go.

At the laundry, the West side are hosting

the inaugural Riverside dinner.

Oh, Dean! What have you done?

After sharing confessions from their time together,

Dean is the last one to deliver his revelation.

So we did the old wife swap thing the other day, right?

And you guys took me in.

It was... I felt like I was one of your own family.

Oh, shit.

So I had a little look around your school.

I went downstairs and I found a little shelter. What?

And, uh,

everything we've eaten tonight was in that shelter.

What?

What? What? Serious?

Every beer, every can, every bit of pasta

was in your house the whole time.

No way. The whole time. Everything. Peanut butter. This much.

Mac and cheese, you wouldn't believe,

but I, really... It was....It was a lot.

So you came into my house again and you stole again.

That's two times you stole from me.

What a nasty, nasty Raggedy Ann bitch!

Take all that food from under their nose

and then invite them to a banquet to eat their own food...

HE SNIGGERS

...only Dean could think of something like that.

Ten out of ten.

I couldn't carry it all on my own, there was quite a lot.

So he needed a bit of a hand.

Slap him, slap him. Slap him.

Freddie came into my house and stole all of my food.

After we had a first date.

You sneaky little bitch.

In my defence, you did say I was welcome back anytime.

We had no idea.

So he came back the next day saying he found it

in another abandoned house.

We trusted you. Worm of a maggot man.

It's a pretty good trade, I mean,

for Dean to then cook you that food.

I mean, are we mad?

Yeah, I do care, cos, fuck team,

I spent so much time coming up with a plan to try

and get people to mend bridges and they stole from us.

Yeah, I know, I just don't like Dean.

He can suck a big one.

So I think we should propose a toast.

Thank you, East Side, for the food this evening.

My God! We got robbed twice. That's mad.

When can we murder him?

Can't believe all that food was under my fucking bed.

I'm so happy.

He's so smug! With his smug face

and his shitty beard and his shitty food.

That was just disgusting tonight.

The worst thing about it is, he took all the food

and made that pile of fucking shit.

Are you ready? Let's go home.

Holy shit! Have you guys seen how thick the snow is?

It's literally covered everything.

Even all of the trees.

You can't even see them, they're white.

Oh my God, I've never seen that before.

Wow, it's so pretty.

Overnight, up to four inches of snow have fallen over the town...

Guys, look!

...threatening to make conditions even harsher for the survivors.

Snowball fight!

Don't throw it on my head.

Oh! I'm so sorry.

GIGGLING

Oh, my God! This snow is so deep.

Hey, guys!

Guys, guys! Get everyone out here!

Get everyone out here now.

Whoa! Guys! Riverside Official Evacuation Notice.

What?

Alert! Any remaining residents

of Riverside must prepare for evacuation in 24 hours.

This is the final evacuation.

Shut the front door!

Proceed to the red X...

...marked on the evacuation map below.

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Oh, my God! Tomorrow! Yes! Oh my God!

We're going home. God!

I can't contain my excitement.

Like we're actually getting saved.

Oh, my God!

Seeing the leaflets gave me so much joy.

We just have to make sure we get there.

It is so mad, but also, like, I'm so excited to do it.

How do we get to the other side of the river?

I'll swim. We can make a raft.

We have one chance.

There's no time for dilly dallying. We really need to get on it.

In subzero temperatures and deep snow,

the survivors will need to trek three kilometres through

the town and forest,

and then cross an icy lake in order to reach the evacuation point.

Just got to figure out a way that all of us get over in one go.

We can make a raft to extend

the kayak and we've got the rope. Right.

I don't want to get there second

and find the other crew have already taken off.

Yeah, well, I reckon we have to go at sun up.

Sun up, yeah. It'd be a good idea.

All right, Steven, see those barriers there?

Tie them together, you get two people on them, no worries.

Under Scott's direction...

I reckon we make it over here.

...the East Siders are repurposing some traffic barriers

to build a raft.

We'll sit it there for now.

It's shaping up really nicely and it will feel like a little cruise ship.

It's going to be lovely.

Job's a good 'un.

Please get us across safely.

The prospect of getting out of here

is like a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

Right, raft's ready. Looking good. All sorted.

Let's go and get some food. Let's get warm.

Back for tea and medals.

At the edge of the lake...

Ten more maybe.

...the West Side are taking a different approach.

I always used to make rafts as a kid.

It's like a massive bird's nest.

So we thought we'd come the day before extraction

and build a raft ready and we can come here

in the morning and just get straight across.

Who'd have thought that?

One, two, three.

Here we go. Happy?

Good job!

Hopefully it floats cos nobody wants to go for a dip in the drink.

That is going to be a cold one.

Last night, guys. I can't believe it.

Very bittersweet. It is bittersweet.

I feel quite sad, though. It is a bit sad.

I'm half tempted to stay.

You what? Half tempted to stay?

Yuck.

There's something wrong with you, I tell ya.

And look what we've done with the place.

Look, I know.

This is like a real home.

Yeah, it is a proper real home. It really is.

Cosy. Yeah. I'm proud of us for that.

In, like, comparison to the West, I feel like we've...

We've really made a family here.

Like a weird trauma bond.

Yeah, like... Like, you know what? We're all different people.

Oh, we're definitely different people.

Yeah. Jesus Christ! You, fucking, youse all hated me

the first few days. Yeah, I did, yeah.

Now, I'm like, "He's my brother".

I love him, you know what I mean?

Actually, I wrote a letter that I've got,

and I wanted to read it out to everyone...

Oh, that's sweet! ..so here it goes.

If you had told me weeks ago

I would be nearing the end of this

and I would have seven new friends for life,

I would have said, "Get a grip!"

I want to say thank you for getting me through this.

You have all smashed it.

Thank you, babes.

Love you. Appreciate you.

It's coming to an end.

A mixed bag of emotions but

we've connected so well here as this little family unit.

Especially Steve.

He's definitely won my heart.

Scotty,

I don't think I could have ever been so wrong about someone's character.

You are a bit of a tip, but you ever tip?

You put everything into this.

You ran yourself into the ground to get us through.

You're making your kids proud

and I know your son is cheering you on, Scott.

Love you, man.

I really do.

Cheers, mate. That's sweet.

Oh, my God!

Sorry.

You know, watching Scott cry is like watching your dad cry.

You know when you're like, "Oh my God, Dad's crying!"

LAUGHING

I can't cope.

Cheers, guys! Cheers!

I'm so excited to leave this place behind.

I don't want to take anything with me other than the memories.

I'm going to miss some of you.

It's been a hell of a ride.

All of you have made a complete difference

and I don't think I would have survived

the entire thing without each and every one of you here.

Yeah, it's the people that make the home,

not the freezing cold building that it's in.

This shithole.

Hear, hear. Yeah.

Also, guys, by the way, can I give a quick reminder.

we're still not out of here yet.

It could all go wrong tomorrow.

Shut up! Shut up, Freddie!

Goggles on. Chocks away.

Are you ready? Ready.

Right. One, two, three.

After 28 days in Riverside, the survivors have been offered

a lifeline.

They must cross a freezing lake to make it to the evacuation point

and be rescued by the military.

Look, guys, the West is already here.

East Side is coming down.

They've got a raft, as well.

Bloody hell! Look at the colour of that!

It's a floating highlighter.

It's a bit more urban than ours.

I really bloody hope this floats.

It needs to float, it needs to float. It will float. Manifest it.

Getting across an icy lake on a makeshift raft...

I just want to know if it floats.

...is giving Steven cause for concern.

Bit stressed. The river is absolutely freezing.

We can't fall into that. That would be game over.

Oh, no!

It hasn't been very often that we've had the whole team together.

Could I have survived an apocalypse without the East?

Yes. But if I saw the East Siders struggling,

I'd probably go out my way to help them.

It's just the person I am.

Steven, do you want to hop in the kayak with me?

Yeah, sure. I'll do that. Yeah? Yeah, that's good.

Thank you, guys.

With Steven and Ioan going in the same boat...

Don't want icy ass.

...the rest of the survivors are able to get underway.

All aboard! Push away from the edge.

Yeah!

Come on, East Side. Come on, guys.

When you look at us as the East Side group,

we are not the typical people that you would put together.

SNORING

Oh, my! Laura.

This might tip me over the edge.

When I first met the group, I was like,

"Oh shit! I've got a month with this crowd."

Oh. How am I going to cope? How are they going to cope?

Shit won't get done unless we go do it.

You're as useful tits on a bull.

When I first met Scott, I couldn't stand him.

He pissed me off, I hated him.

I don't give a fuck. I'll let them starve.

Arrogant. Bossy attitude.

Poached egg for breakfast. No, no, no.

And now I absolutely love that guy.

Literally, he's like my big brother.

He's actually a huge softie.

I know.

We've all had our little beefs with each other.

Bertie, disappear.

Part of the survival process is surviving the people.

Guys!

One job.

Go on, Queen, up you get!

What can you see?

Absolutely nothing.

Oh, that was worth it.

I think the end of the world has made me even more of a princess...

It's piss and shit. Oh, my God! I see it moving.

Don't look at it. Don't look at it.

...but a princess with gratitude.

Oh! This is excellent.

The only way that we thrived is with a sense of community.

I've got a goat!

SHRIEKING

You're awesome.

You smashed it, mate.

Not having that team around me in this group,

I don't think I would have made it to the end for sure.

And I could be honest about that.

CHEERING

Push.

Push, push, push, guys, for me.

That's it, that's it.

There's no East Side, West side.

Riverside, get across.

We're so close.

When I first turned up to this place,

I was overcome with emotions.

It's such a surreal experience.

It's bleak. What is that? Is that train tracks?

I thought everything is broken. There's no power.

There's no running water.

Right, stay there.

It's a fucking shithole.

Let's go.

It just became a race for survival.

There's a bar.

I'm very hungry. Chicken.

Every decision we took stemmed from the food.

This is how much we have left.

It was crazy.

Baked beans. Spam.

It was honestly so difficult.

Things got blown up into arguments, fighting...

Argh!

You let them come here and disrespect Kelly.

Yap, yap. Yap, yap. Yap, yap. Yap, yap.

I'm having a shit time.

Well ask yourself why.

I'm leaving, guys.

This is insane.

But we came together, overcame our differences by ourselves.

It's working.

We've learned that to thrive in the apocalypse, you've got to adapt.

You've got to change.

Oh! Yeah, boy.

Timber!

With all our ups and downs

and disagreements and arguments, we're a family.

Oh!

Oooh la, la la, la la!

I don't think I'll know anyone else ever again,

like I know these people.

Well, we're nearly there.

Ah! Ah! Ah! Pull it forward, Steve. Pull it forward!

Yes! Come on!

Yes, man! Yes!

We made it.

With the teams safely across the water,

they must now climb up a steep ravine

and through the vast snow covered forest...

Keep going, keep going, keep going.

...to reach the evacuation point.

Come on guys! Come on, let's go, Let's go!

We've gotta go!

You OK, guys?

Pace up, pace up.

In Riverside, the survivors are hoping to be rescued...

Keep it up, guys.

...but they still have to make it through the forest

to the evacuation point.

This is the hardest place I've ever been and I've lost my leg,

and I've, you know, gone through things,

but this was bloody dark.

You've got this, guys.

Uh, I will do anything.

I will fight tooth and nail.

I will do whatever it takes to get to the extraction point.

I want to be out here. Come on.

Come on, guys!

Come on.

Let's go, let's go.

Guys, come on!

One foot in front of the other.

Come on! That's it, guys! Come on.

Who's got the smoke?

And throw it, throw it, throw it.

Come on.

Help us!

I can't see anything.

Help!

Help us! Help us!

Help us!

SHOUTING

Are we too late?

There's got to be something coming. There's got to be.

SHOUTING

MOTOR HUMS IN THE DISTANCE What is that noise?

SIREN WAILS Do you hear that?

Oh, what the hell?

What the fuck is that?

Is that a school bus?

What the actual...!

On the bus, now!

Let's go. Come on. Hustle up! Let's go!

Come on! Faster! Come on! Get on the bus!

Let's go!

Come on! Come on! Come on!

Guys, we did it!

Oh my God!

Oh! Holy shit!

Oh my God, we made it!

Oh, my God!

Being here, you're stripped back to just the raw human emotion

and stripped back to being human beings again.

It's been way more freeing than I anticipated.

While I never want to return, Riverside will always carry

a special place in my heart, because now I don't need a knight

in shining armour to help me survive.

I can make it through anything.

Whoo!

When it comes to a situation like the end of the world,

it's cutthroat, it seriously is, and you need to be willing

to mould yourself into that cutthroat person.

I grew up in Africa,

but having lived in England for all my adult life,

things are so easy.

I thought my resilience was slipping away,

so I'm happy to discover that I still have what it takes.

Bye, Riverside.

Oh, the wind in my hair, baby!

Here, every minute of every day is a fight.

So I've just learned, even when I've got absolutely nothing left

in the tank when I'm at rock bottom, gotta keep going.

As weird as it sounds, I feel incredibly lucky.

We're handcuffed to our phones.

We're chained to our desks.

We're constantly finding new ways to be stuck.

Once you cut all that off and you're disconnected,

it's genuine freedom.

No light, no food, no phone, no nothing.

First contact.

You don't steal another farmer's animals.

If 15 people can't live in an apocalypse,

then what has humanity got to, like, hope for.

The Apocalypse giveth and the Apocalypse taketh.
