Captain Star (voiced by Richard E Grant) and his crew – First Officer Scarlette (Denica Fairman), nine-headed, six-armed Atomic Engine Stoker Limbs Jones (Ade Edmondson), and fish-obsessed Navigator Black (variously voiced by Kerry Shale and Gary Martin) – are on a nameless planet at “the ragged edge of the universe”, awaiting further orders from mission control – that will never arrive.
In actuality, the Captain – a legendary explorer whose birthday is celebrated as a holiday throughout the entire universe – has been put out to pasture with his crew and his ship – the Boiling Hell – but hasn’t realised it yet.
Later, they are joined by a robot named Jim-Bob-Bob, tasked with laundry duties and various other acts of menial servitude
