Two Titan Teasers Today! News Posted by Ian Symes on 3rd July 2026, 10:12 With less than a fortnight until the first Red Dwarf novel for thirty years is released, the regular Friday teasers are stepping up a gear, with not one but two videos on their way this morning. First up, at 11am, it’s Welcome to Titan: And while we’re reeling from that, To Ganymede and Titan follows at noon: So welcome to Ganymede & Titan for Welcome to Titan and To Ganymede and Titan.
Jesus, Welcome To Titan is a lot more packed than expected! That will require multiple viewings. Favourite detail on first watch – McBean software. Also, Captain R Hollister?
By far the best one yet. Brilliant. So many easter eggs, references and cameos in this one that we might need a full article on it. Camille! Epideme! Weyland-Yutani! The five-star joke is also a cracker. Congratulations to whoever put this together as it’s excellent.
It being Hollister at all helps to firmly separate it from the original novel universe(s), and this will give me a couple of weeks to get used to the idea of a more GELF-dense contemporary solar system, rather than those being developed after Lister and Rimmer’s time. One universe to the side fixes it all.
Welcome to Titan is brilliant. Laughed at New Rhyl Sun Centre. And painfully transformed genitalia, there. Did we really expect anything less?
Well some of that is definitely very Rob driven isn’t it. Expect painful viruses and mutated plant genitalia. Lovely. That was a very welcome surprise given the last few teasers. Really well put together and far more than you’d ever expect for a book. I wonder how much, if any, involvement Rob had in these little marketing things because it’s clearly being done by someone with writer and or dedicated fan level knowledge of the show. And this seems to hint quite deeply at events and settings within the book.
These are the sort of videos that will likely disappear one day, so please can they be preserved? *someone at Sony has just got irrationally angry at that suggestion*
Also, Captain R Hollister? Rfank Hollister To be fair to Rob, Hollister is only given the name Frank in Back in the Red. And we are one universe to the side so … But I am amused at how immediately it’s been picked up on by us lot.
Okay, so that’s it. But wow. That was lovely. You know, I’ve actually got a tear in my eye. No, really.
SEB What an immensely nice thing to do. Thank you mystery creator of these videos that we definitely haven’t figured out by now.
Wonder if we’ll start getting them daily in the last few days’ countdown to Launch? I think that might be our lot.

I’m currently quite hungover, but I have just had a little cry at the Seb tribute. That’s what got me. Wonderful. Saw that before I even rewatched and read your lot’s names up there.

SEB What an immensely nice thing to do. Thank you mystery creator of these videos that we definitely haven’t figured out by now. This bit made me cry. I HOPE YOU’RE HAPPY!
