    Craig Charles has the most mischievous smile/smirk with twinkling, impish eyes. He was perfect for Lister. That was the first thing I noticed about this show - Lister’s smirk. Makes you want to smile back even if you are angry.

    I respect the fact that Grant and Naylor are totally honest about getting the inspiration for Red Dwarf from John Carpenter's 1974 sci-fi comedy film "Dark Star." Obviously the basic premise is VERY similar, with a handful of men stuck together in a spaceship, lonely, bored out of their minds, parsecs from anywhere, keeping themselves entertained by winding each other up. There's even more to it, like the fact they're blue-collar workers not clean-cut officer material, the way the ship is very "lived-in" and grotty, their bedroom almost a squat; the way one of the crew is a slob, another crewmember is despised by the others, thinks he's better than them, and resents them back; and the way one of the crew is technically dead but can still be interacted with. Heck, some of the attitude from the computer is pretty similar (the "Sorry, guys" and "May I remind you..." stuff), and the way the bomb talks in Dark Star is a lot like the toaster in Red Dwarf - sort of prim and precise, with rather more intelligence than seems strictly necessary for the job it was built to perform. But from the initial idea that's basically "Dark Star the TV Series" Grant and Naylor developed the characters and situations into something that absolutely stands alone - there's no equivalent of Kryten in Dark Star, and certainly nothing like Future Echoes or Back to Reality.

    23:25 - The BBC before John Birt became DG in 1992 was a great broadcaster (yes with flaws, I know) but in terms of comedy, Paul is right, the BBC would leave you alone & not interfere with production. They gave you the budget, the production facilities & the dates to do it, left you to it, expecting you to deliver on the given time. Perfect. Sadly all very different in 2020.

    Agreed. Since they've had such long breaks between seasons and the movie, I thought it would be the most awesome gag if the guys could get together every few years and just do another movie or a short season. It would then literally be like they're all just bumming around through space, growing old together(since they're actually growing old now). It would be brilliant.

    Yeah uh people cared about the cast, sure you didn't get the kind of intense outrage about it like you would today, but that is because of no social media and just a lack of use of the Internet in general. You had papers back then lampooning red dwarf for being progressive and you had all the usual white supremacist nonsense about white actors being "replaced".

    Red Dwarf Series 1 recordings had to all be remounted and moved into the autumn of 1987. After the delay due to the strike, Red Dwarf also nearly came to a grounding halt in October 1987 when the Great Storm battered Britain in mid October, right in the middle of recording episodes 4 and 5. Craig Charles remembered the storm well, having to travel up to Manchester and seeing the devastation the storm caused.

    We've seen plenty of cat-heavy episodes in the past, and DJJ has had more than his fair share of the spotlight. From Duane Dibbley to the dancing with the spaceships in S7, to his many personal skills (a few shown within this video, like his rollerskating and juggling), to the episode where he gets to have sex with another of the cat race in the most recent episode...and need I even mention Tongue Tied? How many of the other members of the team have their own album? These are only a FEW spotlight points within the show I can think of where Cat has been forefront or had a front-and-centre position within the show. If you consider "spotlight" to be whole episodes, has ANYONE really had a spotlight episode that you would call theirs alone? Rimmer had the "Ace Rimmer" thing, but then again Cat had Duane Dibbley...it's much the same thing. Rimmer got Me2, and a couple of small bits and pieces here and there...He's more underrepresented than the Cat. Lister's pretty much the "main" character of the show that everything is revolving around, but he's surprisingly underrepresented for being THE main character. It is logical that a fair portion of the show will revolve around him, the last man in the universe...ultimately it all returns back to him before moving on in another direction, but he gets less than a fair portion of the spotlight...not that I think CC would complain, he gets enough spotlight. And Holly/Hollie...apart from a certain couple of episodes like Queeg ("April, May, June, July AND August fools!") and White Hole, the character is relegated to background. He had to badger the production staff in S1 (as you hear in this video) just to get seen rather than be just a voiceover. And you think the CAT needs more storyline?

    The 1987 BBC Electricians Strike started on January 5th 1987. This affected hundreds of technical staff at the BBC premises across the country, including BBC North West which would be recording Red Dwarf. The strike ended on February 28th 1987 but Red Dwarf would not kick off recording until September 1987.
