We knew it was coming today, but the Kickstarter campaign for audio adventure STRANGENESS IN SPACE finally has lift off!

For full details of how you can help out with the project and what perks are on offer, click here.

From Clare Eden (THE MINISTER OF CHANCE), Sophie Aldred (DOCTOR WHO’s Ace), and comedy duo Trevor Neal and Simon Hickson (as in the brilliant Trev and Simon), the official word on STRANGENESS IN SPACE reads:

What would happen if Sophie, the manager of a NASA Space Centre gift shop, and Trev and Simon, two idiots claiming to be a 1980s styled synth pop duo called Pink Custard, were thrown together with a stressy computer robot called LEMON on board a damaged space craft, lost in a distant universe, orbiting Planet Mirth?

Trev, Simon and Sophie are unwittingly rocketed into the extraordinary, surreal world of space! They’re racing into the future with a foot in the past (the nostalgic 1980s to be precise). Along the way, fuelled by a diet of indigestible powdered space food, they will encounter a whole host of unusual space dwellers and aliens, all played by an exciting parade of cult actors and celebrities, in as many episodes as we can fund through this campaign with your help!

They’ll bump into the flocking Featherheads, or encounter the hairy scary Rhinocerbikers; shake hands with the sinister Dr Scarifium or be shook up by a Space Ghost!

For further details on the project, be sure to check out our in-depth interview with Sophie, Trevor and Simon.
