Upon his return, he is faced with the guilt of his suicide and the murders he committed whilst in his rabid state and those by his sister who now belongs to a militia dedicated to hunting down other PDS sufferers. A bout of depression over the loss of his best friend and romantic interest, Rick Macy, caused the 18-year-old Kieren to commit suicide.

Luke Newberry as Kieren "Kier" or "Ren" Walker, the protagonist of the series who is one of the many formerly rabid zombies who have been rehabilitated, and has since returned to his parents' home in the village of Roarton.In the village of Roarton, PDS sufferers face prejudice from the villagers upon their return. Many of the risen are haunted by memories of the atrocities they committed while rabid. They are officially referred to as sufferers of Partially Deceased Syndrome (PDS), though anti-zombie hardliners prefer the pejorative term "rotters". They are provided with contact lenses and cosmetics, to help them conceal their deceased status, and maintenance injections of medication to keep them from relapsing into a dangerous or "rabid" state. The surviving undead, not killed by the militias, have been rounded up, forcibly medicated, and entered in a government rehabilitation programme in a plan to reintroduce them to society. Meanwhile, a scientific solution for the zombie phenomenon has been found, with the development of a medication to restore consciousness to the undead, allowing them to remember their time alive and who they once were. A full-fledged zombie apocalypse has long since been prevented by armed resistance from the living, especially from armed local militias who patrolled their communities and actively hunted the re-animated. However, by the time of the series, normality has begun to return.

This period, in (fictional) 2010, was a time when thousands of people who had died in 2009 suddenly re-animated as mindless, homicidal, brain-eating zombies world-wide.

The show, set in the fictional village of Roarton, Lancashire, though filmed in Marsden, West Yorkshire, depicts life several years after "The Rising".
