BBC Press Office have just put up a press release of a new commission, Clone.
Another Sci-fi-ish show on BBC Three. It sounds like it could go either way, but at least it's a more interesting idea that most shows on BBC Three over the last few years.A new 'team written' comedy series created by Adam Chase, best known for his writing and executive producing roles on Friends, has been commissioned for BBC Three.
Clone opens with a brilliant scientist unveiling the result of his life's work: the first human clone. Intended to be a prototype super soldier who will eventually replace Britain's volunteer army, the Doctor quickly realizes his super weapon is more likely to hug someone than shoot them.
Clone is a classic 'fish out of water' comedy revolving around the education of an innocent being who is seeing and experiencing our world for the first time. It could also be described as a 'buddy comedy' about a modern Dr Frankenstein and his monster.
