A comedy about Astronomy professors in an observatory?
Yup that is exactly what it was! I enjoyed the sheer wackiness of this brilliant little gem.
Some of its humour comes from clever in-jokes about matters astronomical - some from the cultural interplay between the English professor and his Australian colleagues and some from the lovable eccentricity of all seven characters.
Occasional contrived situations did occur but the excellent cast carried them off with verve.
The BBC decided that the show might have limited appeal only and so, giving it little publicity, consigned it to a graveyard slot on a minority channel.
What a shame they hadn't the guts to substitute Supernova for one of their multitude of prime-time soaps - they might have got a pleasant surprise.
