    Bond Girl Rachel Grant (Peaceful Fountains of Desire in Die Another Day) has landed a part in STARHYKE, a British Sci-Fi comedy scheduled for production in June 2004. In STARHYKE Rachel Grant will play Head of Security Wu Oof, a member of an aggressive alien race who fought amongst themselves for 3 millennia. Wu Oof was the Plutonian kick boxing champion for 7 years, accidentally killing 137 opponents in the ring, 6 during intermission.

    She joins Bond veteran Jeremy Bulloch (best known as Boba Fett in the Star Wars films) who played Q’s assistant Smithers in For Your Eyes Only and Octopussy and was an HMS Ranger Crewman in The Spy Who Loved Me.

    In STARHYKE Jeremy Bulloch will play accident prone Chief Medical Officer Doctor Yul Stiker.

    STARHYKE will be the first new British Sci-Fi series made in over 5 years, more importantly, this raunchy comedy will be like no other science fiction show ever seen on TV.

    “This is a totally new style of science fiction, it will have the same effects as the big budget sci-fi greats, but is ultimately a comedy show in the same vein as such spoofs as Airplane or Police Squad. It’ll be a joke a minute, roller coaster ride of raunchy fun and frolics as the crew each develop their own personal way of adapting to a new environment.”

    Producer Jonathan G Brown.
