Thanks to Dave T. who reminded me about a new comedy entitled Hyperdrive which starts on the 11th January on BBC 2. The trailers have been showning on the BBC. It sounds intriguing, from the press release...
...set in 2151 and the crew of HMS Camden Lock are on a mission. Their mission is not to explore new worlds or seek out new life but to protect Britain's interests in a changing galaxy by encouraging aliens to relocate their businesses to Peterborough and take holidays in The Lake District!
Ha ha. It stars Nick Frost (Spaced, Shaun of the Dead) and Kevin Eldon (Nighty Night, Big Train) both highly underated comedic actors. There's a preview clip online.
