Reported earlier today in the Radio Times, the pilot that Adam wrote with Graham Linehan and starred in, has had a full series commissioned.

Channel 4 has commissioned a full series of The Cloud, its pilot comedy set in space.

In February, RadioTimes.com revealed that Father Ted and The IT Crowd writer Graham Linehan was teaming up with Adam Buxton (of Adam and Joe fame) to make the test episode – and we can now confirm that it has impressed C4 bosses so much that they have ordered a full run.

The Cloud follows the fairly hapless crew of Cloud Station 13, a data hub floating in space, set up to protect the vast amounts of information humanity now hoards on its devices.
