Imagine ''[[Doctor Who]]'' starring an underfunded [[Obstructive Bureaucrat]], and you have ''Nebulous'': a BBC Radio 4 [[After the End]] comedy series which parodies much of British Science Fiction, in particular ''[[Quatermass]]'' and the aforementioned ''[[Doctor Who]]''. ''Nebulous'' follows the adventures of Professor Nebulous, leader of K.E.N.T.: the Key Environmental Non-judgemental Taskforce, which just happens to be based in a London launderette. K.E.N.T. is tasked with picking up the pieces after an environmental disaster known as "The Withering": a [[Cozy Catastrophe]] that has led to the extinction of vegetarians, tarts and white dog-doings. The series exists almost solely to [[Subverted Trope|subvert]] [[Speculative Fiction Tropes]], and many episodes are [[Affectionate Parody|Affectionate Parodies]] of other shows.
