A gory first-look trailer for Channel 4 series Generation Z has been released.

The horror-comedy is set in a fictional town where care home residents are zombified after a chemical leak, and face off against the local teenagers.

The show is set in the town of Dambury, which has “stark opportunities and not much to do”, and is “the last place you'd expect the apocalypse to begin”.

“When an army convoy overturns outside a care home, a chemical leak starts to have an adverse effect on the residents there,” the synopsis adds. “The OAPs, led by Cecily and Frank, escape the grasp of the army looking to contain their angry, violent, insatiable hunger for raw flesh.
