Harriet Ambrose makes a desperate phone call before boarding a train.
Overhead a flight of Chinook helicopters bearing strange insignia thunder across the London sky.

 

The St. Pancras to Sheffield run picks up its passengers along the way - ordinary folk fated at random to be on this particular journey. Harriet is in a state of high anxiety, reassured only by the mysterious flask in her possession.

 

The train enters a tunnel shortly before arriving in Sheffield...What follows is one of the most intelligently imaginative stories ever to grace the television screen.

 

The very best kind of science-fiction, THE LAST TRAIN takes us on a gripping ride through a suspense-filled, adventurous and exciting drama serial, the like of which is rarely seen.

 

(IRT considers THE LAST TRAIN to be 15+ viewing. Contains mild bad language, mild sexual scenes and some distressing sequences)
