About this listen
For Stan Stubbins, Tuesday mornings are a symphony of meticulously planned rituals, culminating in the 08:15 train from Woking to Waterloo. But this particular Tuesday, the familiar rumble of the rails gives way to the unsettling hum of interstellar transit as his commuter train is unexpectedly integrated into the Galactic Transit Authority. Instead of Surbiton, Stan and his fellow bewildered passengers find themselves at Florg Prime Interchange, a bewilderingly vast alien spaceport where their train tickets are useless and their only hope of return lies in navigating a bureaucratic nightmare of cosmic proportions.
Armed only with a thermos of lukewarm tea and a rapidly diminishing sense of normalcy, Stan must confront indifferent alien officials, incomprehensible regulations (including the infamous Form 11-Beta-Xi), and the universal inefficiency of catering services. From seeking help at information hubs that offer nerve stapling to bargaining in shady back-alleys for forged documents, Stan's mad dash to get back to Waterloo becomes a hilarious and satirical adventure through the absurdities of galactic bureaucracy and the surprising resilience of the average commuter.
