    The other day I came across the old Red Dwarf newsgroup. It’s been interesting looking at first opinions of then-new episodes and at the rumours that popped up. (A Doctor Who cameo in RD6?!?)

    The earliest posts date back to May 1992:

    Here’s a shortcut to Series VI episode discussion:

    I never realised that Kryten says Zee-Deck but Zed-X 81! MIND BLOWN.

    (I like the fact that within ten posts the thread subject has veered off from “Red Dwarf 6 – PSIRENS – MILD SPOILERS!” to “ZX81 pronunciation”.)

    Fuzzy Fox:

    On a related note, why did the actor who played the male Holly (can’t
    remember his name!) leave the show?

    There’s a good point – who was that guy?

    At least we now know that the last 10 minutes of ‘Out of Time’ definitely take place in an unreality bubble.

    “On a related note, why did the actor who played the male Holly (can’t

    Even better is the reply: “My understanding was that the orginal had committed suicide. I will try to track down the reference.”

    Oh har har.

    But no, seriously, I do have a sense of humour.

    But, seriously, s/he must feel like a right berk now. But, in a way, Norm has committed career suicide so this person might have just been ahead of the times.

    Well you try defending him/her then!
