  • Summary

  • Please note: contains strong language and adult content.

    From the creators of The Katering Show comes an ordinary workplace comedy set in the most extraordinary place on earth.

    Maya joins the long-running and much-lauded Bennett Station Adelie Penguin Program as a research assistant in Antarctica. By the time everyone figures out Maya’s completely unqualified for her job it’s too late – the ship is already en route back to Australia and no-one is getting in, or out, of Antarctica until the summer season ends.

    Written by Kate McLennan and Kate McCartney and produced by Guesswork Television in association with OK Great Productions.

Loved this - Gutted When I Finished It

I loved the characters, the comedy, the setting. Binged it in a day and wished there’d been twice the number of episodes! I’ve re-listened several times. Hope there’s more or more from the writers. Fantastic value as part of the Audible Membership.

Great listen

A fun show, good acting an imaginative situational comedy. A lot of swearing. I recommend it.
