About This Program ✦
The show titled Zombie Apocalypse is presented as a programme, specifically an episode‑length installment. Its format places it squarely within the episode genre, offering a self‑contained narrative rather than a multi‑part series. In the core of the episode, Paul sets out to examine what might transpire if a full‑blown zombie apocalypse were to occur. As he delves into scenarios involving the undead, an unexpected development unfolds: the COVID‑19 virus begins to spread worldwide, intersecting his speculative inquiry with a real‑world health crisis. The episode therefore juxtaposes Paul’s hypothetical exploration of a zombie outbreak with the simultaneous global expansion of COVID‑19. Throughout his investigation, the pandemic’s progression serves as a backdrop, highlighting how an imagined catastrophe can be mirrored by an actual one unfolding in real time. This dual focus forms the central thrust of the programme, linking the fictional threat of zombies with the tangible spread of a contemporary virus across the globe.
