The Quanderhorn Xperimentations
The Quanderhorn Xperimentations | Rob Grant, Andrew Marshall

ADAPTED BACKWARDS VIA THE FUTURE FROM THE RADIO 4 SERIES BEFORE IT WAS MADE A richer, deeper, more comprehensive exploration of the Quanderhorn phenomenon. With added secrets. England, 1952. A time of peace, regeneration and hope. A Golden Age. Unfortunately, it's been 1952 for the past 65 years. Meet Professor Quanderhorn: a brilliant, maverick scientific genius with absolutely no moral compass. Assisted by a rag-tag crew - his part-insect "son" (reputedly 'a major breakthrough in Artificial Stupidity'), a recovering amnesiac, a brilliant scientist with a half-clockwork brain, and a captured Martian hostage - he'll save the world. Even if he has to destroy it in the process. With his Dangerous Giant Space Laser, Utterly Untested Matter Transfuser Booth and Fleets of Monkey-driven Lorries, he's not afraid to push the boundaries of science to their very limit. And far, far beyond ...

I really, really wanted to give this a chance. The premise sounds great - brilliant maverick scientist saving the world, assisted by his half-insect son, a recovering amnesiac, a scientist with a half-clockwork brain and a captured martian hostage. Right in my wheelhouse, however, a bit too silly even for me. Not sure if I'm just in a serious mood or if it was slightly too much 'shennanigans'. Need to drop this and move on, sorry.
