Hyperdrive - Episode 01 - A Gift from the Glish

The premiere episode of the BBC2 sci-fi comedy "Hyperdrive"

Curated by Thomas Michalski

Total Runtime: 0:29:12

It's the year 2151, and aboard the starship H.M.S. Camden Lock commander Mike Henderson pursues his mission "to protect Britain's interests in a changing galaxy", aided by his eccentric crew, including the awkward, love-stricken Ms. Teal, the insubordinate technical officer Jeffers, the bumbling navigator Vine, the hard-nosed Officer York and the enhanced-humanoid Sandstrom.

Created by Kevin Cecil and Andy Riley, Hyperdrive stars Nick Frost (Spaced, Shaun of The Dead, Paul) and a supporting cast full of english comedy stalwarts, including Kevin Eldon, Miranda Hart and Geoffrey McGivern. The show ran for two series between 2006 and 2007, comprising 12 epsiodes altogether. Despite a cult status that continues to grow, the creators have said that it is unlikely the characters will be revived for a third series any time soon.
