Jump Leads: A Scifi-Comedy Audiodrama Series
Wide-eyed Meaney and perpetual cynic Llewellyn are Cadets in the Lead Service, an organization that has appointed itself police of the whole of the Multiverse. And, as luck would have it, they’re the first Cadets in decades to go on actual field-training exercises in actual, proper parallel Universes. However, luck is apparently not quite on their side – a catastrophic disaster on their first trip to an alternate Earth leaves them stuck with a broken-down JumpShip – every time they pull the lever that should send them back to H.Q, it instead flings them into a random alternate reality and towards adventure… whether they like it or not! Based on the critically-acclaimed webcomic which ran from 2007 to 2013 and was positively compared to shows like Doctor Who, Red Dwarf, and The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Jump Leads is everything you love about your favourite British science-fiction series wrapped up in one big comedy bundle.
Like Doctor Who meets Sliders

This show is very fun so far. The pacing is great and the scenarios that the characters find themselves in are so different each time. And I love silly gags like the dinosaur also having a knife. Definitely check it out! Extremely well edited too, sounds like a professionally produced project.
It’s about time! … And alternate Universes

I just cannot get enough of this! As an avid listener to all things Hitchhikers Guide, Doctor Who and Red Dwarf and Blackadder - this is a multiverse I’m happy to belong to. The main characters have great rapport, with well thought out personalities. The character of Lewellyn played by British writer and producer, Ben Paddon, is like a cross between Black Adder and Arnold Rimmer. His sardonic wit permeates every encounter with keen co-pilot, Meany. I eagerly look forward to next week’s fun filled episode.
What fun!

A new beginning for an excellent series! The sound design and presentation are top-notch, the cast brings superb energy to their parts, and the story is already goofy and engaging. Fans of audio drama will find themselves in for a treat with this one. Definitely looking forward to the rest of the season!
