Episode description

This time we review Avenue 5 (Series 1 Episode 1)

Avenue 5 has been described as "set in the future, mostly in space."

On board the interplanetary cruise ship, the Avenue 5, a momentary loss of artificial gravity and accidental death of its chief engineer sends the titular vessel a few degrees off course.

It's estimated it will take the ship three years to return to Earth, and with only enough supplies to sustain her many passengers for the intended eight-week long cruise, the crew of the Avenue 5 must struggle to maintain order and return the craft safely.

Written by Armando Iannucci.
Produced by Various.
Directed by Armando Iannucci.
A Dundee production for HBO.
