Nebulous

The original six-part BBC Radio 4 comedy sci-fi series starring Mark Gatiss and David Warner. ‘Doctor Who fans may well have found a new love-object’ - Guardian ‘A winning blend of Doomwatch, Quatermass and British silliness that has cult written all over it’ - Times The year is 2099 and Professor Nebulous (Mark Gatiss, 'League of Gentlemen') is the director of eco-troubleshooting organisation K.E.N.T. - the Key Environmental Nonjudgemental Taskforce. But it’s so under-funded it subsidises its work by running a launderette. And the twintub’s malfunctioned. In a post-apocalyptic England, cattle-clasm has wiped out the majority of the livestock, there are new months such as Octember and Janril, and climate change has formed a drizzly new season called Hamble. Nebulous is determined to get Mother Earth back on the right track, nevertheless he must pit his wits against sentient dust, killer cacti, naked aliens and the evil Dr Klench (David Warner, 'Titanic', 'Star Trek VI') who’s bent on world domination. Can K.E.N.T. save the day before the spin cycle finishes? Nebulous also stars Graham Crowden, Paul Putner and Rosie Cavaliero.
