Geeks of the world unite – Red Dwarf is back (for a bit…)

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7851989.stm

Whoo Hoo 🙂

is it still cold outside?

yes and there’s still no kind of atmosphere… 😉

I suspect it will be rubbish sadly – will still watch it though.

Lister’s show on 6 Music on Sunday evenings is one of the best things ever.

Not bad for a taxi driver.

The funk show! It’s Hammond time.

Love that tag!

The Funk Show with Andy Smith is the stuff of legend! I haven;t bothered listening in ages, but I think I shall now……

Nice opening track….!

Depends if the original writers are on it.

SERIOUS?!!! Corr blimey I reckon it could go either way- funny as or lame rehash? Cat- how do they age him? Interesting to see what they come up with!

Wahoo!

Just added Mamosian cuisine to the tags 8)

Whistles nonchalantly…

Wicked!

I’ll be watching that…
🙂

Anyone for Mango juice?

The last series where they were on Red Dwarf was a bit pants. I hope this is more like series 1-5

the real problem is that the 2 writers now hate each other, only one was involved with teh last few series

still i am really lookin forward to it

just what you need at eater the resurection of something wonderful

and im not talking about the fairy tale about the homophobic, mysoginistic, anti-semetic, preacher who was propbably a paedo if hes like his modern day disciples

The last 2 series were truly dreadful.

and im not talking about the fairy tale about the homophobic, mysoginistic, anti-semetic, preacher who was propbably a paedo if hes like his modern day disciples

Not that I go to church but, there might be a few problems with this statement, namely:

1. Ummm Jesus, wasn’t a fairy tale there is documented proof that he existed during that time (mind you that doesn’t say he was the son of God)

2. homophobic, really, where did you get that from?

3. misogynistic, do you know anything about ancient cultures? or are you holding it against him that he didn’t start a womens lib movement?

4. anti-semitic, well he kinda had a reason don’t you think?

5. probably a paedo, really? where exactly did you extract that nugget of information?

I suspect, even Richard ‘Raving Fundamentalist’ Dawkins would struggle to stand behind your beliefs.

Is Stephen Dawkins a cross between RIchard Dawkins and Stephen Hawking?

Not sure about the ‘unplugged’ episode. What is that all about?! Trying to prove that it’s “all about the writing and acting” or just cheap as chips program making?

If you’re in trouble he will save the day
He’s brave and he’s fearless come what may
Without him the mission would go astray
He’s Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

Without him life would be much grimmer
He’s handsome, trim, and no-ones slimmer
He will never need a zimmer
He’s Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

More reliable than a garden trimmer
He’s never been mistaken for Yul Brynner
He’s not bald, and his head doesn’t glimmer

Master of the wit and the repartee
His command of space directives is uncanny
How come he’s such a genius? Don’t ask me!
Ask Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

He’s also a fantastic swimmer
And if you play your cards right
Then he just might come round for dinner
He’s Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

No rhymes left now apart from quimmer
He’d better fade us out before we get to schlimmer
Fade out you stupid plimmer

Jesus was Jewish, how was he anti-Semitic? He was considered by many to be a fulfilment of a Jewish prophecy.. Christians were Jews for a good few years after the events.

classic red dwarf to brighten up anyones day

jimbob

ok ok jesus was just some loudmouth revolutionary preacher who wanted to start his own system, kind of like l ron hubbard meets george galloway

and i said the fairytale ABOUT him ie that he was resurrected, or do u believe that nugget?

and all of the attributes i ascribed to him are actualy the ones seen in the church that worships him today, so theyre just things done in his name, and thats soem of the nicer things,

infact here is my proper rebutal to your critique in a red dwarf fashion

The supreme deity in their religion is Cloister. Legend has it that Cloister was frozen in time to save Frankenstein, the Holy Mother of the cat-people. He would eventually return and lead the cat-people to Fushal (I always thought it was spelled Fyushal in Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers but resiak (user) swears it’s Fushal in the Official Programme Guide, so I use this latter spelling), the Promised Land. After arriving at Fushal, the cats will be able to partake of all manner of hotdog and donut and they would wear hats of great majesty, though they be made of colored cardboard and have humorous arrows through the top. At least, that’s what legend says. This is actually their interpretation of Lister’s plan to open a hotdog and donut diner stand on Fiji, but three million years of retelling the tale warped the names and events beyond recognition.

Most of the cats on Red Dwarf died in Holy Wars fought between the two factions — those who thought the hats should be red and those who thought the hats should be blue. Daft, especially since, according to Lister, they were supposed to be green. The cats not killed in Holy Wars built two arks, one for red-hats and one for blue-hats, and they left Red Dwarf in search of Fushal. They used a star chart Cloister supposedly left for Frankenstein. The sacred writings read “Seven socks. One shirt.” Unfortunately, Lister had lined Frankenstein’s basket with his laundry list. So one ark crashed into a comet, and the other flew onward forever.
