This is a little project we've been working on for a while. It falls into the realm of transmedia but touches on radio comedy and will eventually develop into a web or TV series. We're currently experimenting with style and tone.
Somewhere between Yes, Minister, The Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy and Brazil, the narrative concerns three groups of characters:
A lowly civil servant accidentally promoted to the highest levels of government; who will come to work for;
two high ranking ministers coping with the recent privatisation of their intelligence organisation; who will shortly come into conflict with;
a pair of extraterrestrial gangsters who have crash-landed on earth and decide to lay low here avoiding galactic authorities.
Feedback welcome!
Note: the half hour radio episode is streamed three times a day but if you prefer an MP3 you can grab one here.
