the chances are that if the power is off for a week-like in the programme- then it probably isn't coming back on...period! I read somewhere that if all the relays were fried even if the engineers ALL survived it would take YEARS about 10-20 years to replace all the relays and it might never be completed.
that's 10-20 years MINIMUM, and it just might NOT be possible to replace EVERY relay in the entire UK!
that's of course, is if they have enough spare parts to even begin refitting new relays....which they wont have and they cant make new ones cos guess what, you need electricity for that.
just a few pieces I've found on the subject on line in about 30 seconds...others are available!

Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.
