I think it was the 1970s, but regardless, a long time ago, the BBC did a television series adaption of the book, The Day of the Triffids. I love the book and I have been meaning to check out the miniseries sometime in the near future. I just saw this interesting news: apparently, the BBC is doing yet another television readaption (in this version, more of a reboot). Quiet Earth has some stills available and the show is set to air overseas December 27 and 28, which will mean I will be able to download it soon after. I think I may see this version first, since I can imagine the older television version is probably pretty dated, especially considering the story requires some pretty intensive special effects.
