Trivia

As the taxi pulls away from the hotel at the start of the second scenario, a movie theatre can be seen across the road with the sign over the entrance reading "Now Showing Groundhog Day" an obvious reference between the similarities to the storyline of Groundhog Day (1993) and the docudrama's filming style.

Goofs

Many of the news segments are broadcast on BBC3. BBC3 starts broadcasting at 19:00 and the only news it carries is the "60 Seconds" strand between programmes.

User Reviews

Worst thing Ive seen in a long time, especially from BBC

What the hell is wrong with people releasing something like this, I just need to point out one thing. A meteorite is falling behind a kid and the kid is just watching it from a train leaving the city like nothing is happening. Its not about acting, reaction of people are so unbelievable unreal that it makes this thing even more terrible then it is. A tsunami higher then most buildings in Manhattan sweeps down the streets and a guy in a car just watches it and is like wooow thats big.
