Chris Coxen’s Space Clone Audition
You suspect that the premise of this show, like everything else about it, was conceived at 4am while sat on a floor surrounded by empty bottles. America’s sending someone into space to be cloned millions of times, so they can protect the nation. There’s no further explanation and really, there doesn’t need to be – it’s just an excuse to bring out a quartet of bonkers characters, each one more random and more likely to give you the giggles than the last.
The show would fare much better at 11pm, accompanied by a glass of something strong. If you don’t get absurd, haphazardly silly comedy, you’ll find it too much. If nonsensical Mighty Boosh sketches have you rolling on the floor, you’ll love it.
