Defying Gravity

Wednesday 21 October

9:00pm - 9:45pm

BBC2

Pilot

Sci-fi drama. A team of eight astronauts, embarking on a six year journey to explore Venus and other planets in the solar system, find their lives and destinies intertwined and carefully directed, not only by Mission Control officials on Earth, but also by an unseen force which is much closer and far more powerful.

This seems familiar - I thought we`d mentioned it somewhere before ?

From Wiki: Defying Gravity is a multi-nationally produced space travel television drama series, first aired on August 2, 2009 on ABC and CTV. Set in the year 2052, with flashbacks to five and ten years earlier in the story's continuity, the series follows eight astronauts � four women and four men�from five countries on a six-year space mission through the Solar System, during which they are monitored from earth via a real-time communication system. The series was pitched to networks as "Grey's Anatomy in space". Holy Hell!

Whatever were those networks thinking to actually give it the green light? I might just pop in and have a look, or set the PVR and see what it's all about, but I don't hold out much hope. Rather wait till 10pm and watch the repeats just starting of Spaced on Dave.
