Cold Lazarus: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Cold Lazarus is a mini-series set in 24th century Britain. The ruined streets are unsafe and society is run by powerful commercial corporations. Experiences are almost all virtual, and anything deemed authentic has either been banned or replaced by synthetic substitutes.

At a cryonics research institute in London, a group of scientists led by Dr. Emma Porlock are working on reviving the mind of the 20th-century writer Daniel Feeld, whose head was frozen after his death.
