FYI Red Dwarf is were Star Trek TNG got the inspiration for how the Borg will look. Just wanted to throw that out there.

The Earth scenes were filmed in Manchester. In fact...the studio is BBC Manchester.

That is true, many of the shows I have watched so far had been shorter,

LOL thanks bud!

So happy series 3 is finally here. Backwards is okay, but Polymorph is the episode that truly hooked me into Red Dwarf.

Red Dwarf did Tennet before Tennet was a thing.

Red dwarf is unusual for a British sitcom as its best is from the third series onward.

ChrisW

Can you post the google link please. The last one I can find is series 2 episode 5 when scrolling down

BertFredStan

It's still on here

Josh what happened to series 2 episode 6? Did you react to it or did I miss it?

Stuart Fewtrell

Because it's funny.

It's quite an original idea and it's when RD gets going as a show - but bloody hell this episode is an absolute nightmare logically speaking :) - I don't think it makes sense at any point. Set aside all the basic physics that it obliterates, just the behaviour of people in backwards world makes no sense. The backwards world would experience time going forward, no differently from us. From their subjective vantage point everything is moving forward as normally. There's no way they could experience anything differently, it simply wouldn't make sense to them. The only time reverse effects they would experience would be when Rimmer and Kryten turn up, and they would see them behaving as though they were moving backwards through time. So why are all their papers reporting everything backwards, why are their signs written backwards, why do they say goodbye when welcoming people, etc... :) if you let it, the sheer daffiness of this episode can melt your brain.

You missed the apostrophe in t'naC ;)

Season three, yeah! But speaking of sex on htraE, didn't they describe just that in the Backwards book? Some of the scenes were so trippy and it's been so many years that the whole book series almost feels like a fever dream.

The end is hilarious. Urgh the more you think about it the more horrific it is 🤣

martyn dodds

Thomas McDonald

Yeah, Norman Lovett's a bit of a dick. In all of the documentaries about the show, that definitely comes across. Not so much of a dick that I wouldn't want to meet him, but enough where I wouldn't want to work with him.

You have now entered the golden era of Red Dwarf. Anyone who tells you Red Dwarf is amazing is likely referring to series 3-6. Series 7 is still pretty good in my opinion but 8 is pretty bad. 9/10 aren't great but picks back up in 11 and the latest feature length episide.

A little bit of trivia the actor who plays cat was in the film labyrinth he played one of the fireys.

In the making of this series they explain the stuff as nonsense so they don't have to have kids in this series lol. Also Holly was changed due to a falling out with the original guy.

Mr K

Same here, probably because she was my first Holly towards the end of this series. 🙂

ALW

I love female Holly. I mean I like them both, but she's my favourite version.

martyn dodds

perfect

Backwards is a fun episode with some, at the time, current scientific theory as well. Episode 3 is one of the best ones. hsoJ eno doog a evaH.

I'd rather have that rabbit woman lol

Michael

You were in the Falklands??

Manly Stump

Yeah he was definitely a dick about it. Imagine telling your boss you're only coming in one day a week from now on but don't they dare try and pay you less!

Michael

aw man whaaat this is an awesome one

Adam C Turek

the way Norman Lovett (Hollie) left the show was petty. Basically they would all get together for rehearsals before filming each episode, but Norman didn't like the long travel to just sit on a stool and read his lines and thought he didn't need to be there. The writers explained that with him there they can try out what works and what doesn't, and if he's choosing to not show up then he's not going to get his full wage as its in his contract to show up. He stated they couldn't do that, the writers disagreed so he said he'd rather not do any of it it then. He even got angry about Hattie Hayridge (new Hollie) because he thought she was stealing his act.

Mr K

Can't say I'm a fan of this one, will give it a miss. Next week may well be my favourite episode, though. 🙂

Richard Carter

Thankski veryski muchski budski!

martyn dodds
