Channel 4 commissions Space Ark pilot
Category: News Release
Channel 4 can confirm that they have commissioned a non-TX pilot of Space Ark, a sci-fi sitcom starring Georgia King, Tom Stourton, Justin Edwards, Alex Beckett, Ricky Grover and Nico Tatarowicz.
It’s 6 months, 1 week, and 4 days since the earth was destroyed by an asteroid. 200 humans survive on board a huge ‘Space Ark’. Their mission? To find a new planet where the human race can be re-established. The ship is populated by the finest minds the earth had to offer, plus an inept crew, an android-bear pilot and a member of the public who won his place by lottery. In the pilot episode the crew encounter a seemingly friendly alien race, whose space craft has broken down. What could possibly go wrong?
A Hat Trick production commissioned by Liz Lewin for Channel 4 Written by George Jeffrie and Bert Tyler-Moore, directed by James De Frond, executive Produced by Helen Williams, and produced by Mollie Freedman Berthoud.
