Star Maidens




Very British Futures show

Summary: <p>The rogue planet Medusa arrives in our solar system. Beneath its surface is an advanced alien civilisation where women rule and men are slaves. Adam and Shem steal a space yacht and travel to Earth, a paradise where it is rumoured that men are in charge and women obey. Hot in pursuit are Security Chief Octavia and Councillor Fulvia, Adam's owner.</p> <p>A space adventure series, a satire on the battle of the sexes, a SF parody, or a seriously intended rival to Gerry Anderson's Century 21 productions? <em>Star Maidens</em> is a mass of contradictions wrapped in Seventies disco futurism and C&amp;A fashion disasters. Joining host Gareth Preston to try and untangle this British/German patchwork is Dr Rebecca Wray and Kevin Hiley.</p> <p>Music by Chatri Ahpornsiri ( www.chatriart.bandcamp.com )<br> Production by Gareth Preston<br> <br> You can follow us on @FuturesVery on Twitter for photos, previews of upcoming episodes and discussion.<br> Or take a look at garethpreston.blog for more information and reviews.</p> --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/verybritishfutures/message
