Sorry, Suki, I'll explain why... If you take the even letters of 'survive', you get the letters 'u', 'u' and 'v' and those letters are incorporated into the word 'lies'. The Radio Times compiler comes up with something similar on a regular basis and, if you ever see the word 'oddly', take the odd letters instead.
