2023 graduate Cloud Quinn stars in the drama; Sky: Before the Chaos by Gary Russell, which was released by The Big Finish this August.
Based on the 1975 ITV children’s series by Bob Baker & Dave Martin, the story follows a time-travelling alien boy with psychic powers. In this reboot of the show, Cloud takes the lead role that was originally played by Marc Harrison in the TV series as the character mysteriously reappears.
Here’s what Cloud said:
“Sky definitely piqued my interest. I watched a little on YouTube and I read the novel of the original 1970 series, and I just loved the imagination of it. It felt very challenging for children, but in a good way, opening their horizons to the big issues of the day around space flight and nuclear power and continuous industrialisation, and what that meant for the natural world – obviously that remains very, very relevant today.’’
