Back-to-Back Dwarf

[Smeg4Brains]

Just seen on the Dave website that they are showing entire series’ of Dwarf every Saturday and Sunday in September stating on the 8th. But they’re showing them in reverse order for some bizarre reason.

Saturday 8th September from 11am – Red Dwarf VIII
Sunday 9th September from 11am – Red Dwarf VII

Saturday 15th September from 11am – Red Dwarf VI
Sunday 16th September from 11am – Red Dwarf V

Saturday 22nd September from 11am – Red Dwarf IV
Sunday 23rd September from 11am – Red Dwarf III

Saturday 29th September from 11am – Red Dwarf II
Sunday 30th September from 11am – Red Dwarf I

Yeah, saw the ‘news’ piece on the site. To be fair, the schedules/TV guides been showing on ‘Red Dwarf’ searches on the Dave site for a good while (http://ganymede.tv/atspeed/2012/07/red-dwarf-x-trailer#comment-179313) but it’s nice to see that the schedulers have seen sense and have switched sVII and VIII around.

That news piece (which doesn’t mention that Back To Earth is on on Sunday evening) has yesterday’s date on, so it’s not today’s big thing, is it? Are we getting anything today, or has all the Vindalunar stuff this week worn Dave out?

[Smeg4Brains]

All right then, smart arse.
I hope vindalunar isn’t all we get this week. Saying that though we have been spoiled with episode titles and synopses and such like.

> All right then, smart arse.

Sorry. ;)

[si]

Double post. Not so smart after all.

[genericnerdyusername]

But certainly an arse.

[si]

Indeed.

I’ve also just had another Dave ‘Red Dwarf’ search – the 11th October episode of RDX is also now in the schedules.

That ‘Red Dwarf Weekends/countdown’ news piece on the Dave site now includes a 40 second trailer, which is a lot longer than the version I’ve seen on the telly. Just thought I’d mention it.

Also, Dave’s dedicated Red Dwarf X programme page has got a bit more to it. It’s basically just the RDX press release and other bits, but it looks pretty.

Are there any X repeats apart from 10pm on Dave ja vu. in the schedules?

Or it just Thursday 9pm then other channle 10pm? Cus I work evenings and dont have a recorder set up.

[Smeg4Brains]

Seeing as how it’s on Dave, I’d guess it’ll be repeated about 12 times a week.

I honestly don’t know about repeats. I’d expect a repeat later on Thursday night, maybe around midnight. I know Dave show stuff like QI and Mock The Week on a loop, but they don’t tend to do that so much with their own ‘new’ stuff. :/

[Jimboid]

I’m sure Back to Earth has been on at least 700 times.

[ChrisM]

I seem to remember BtE being repeated shortly after showing, but I think it was a while before it was shown again.

[Danny Stephenson]

And it’s always the Director’s Cut, which in my opinion is the way it should be shown, and am surprised it is shown this way. Had it not been Dave’s property I doubt they would show it that way, but it is and they do, and i’m glad it is.

I’d expect a repeat later on Thursday night, maybe around midnight.

Just had a nosey at listings for thursday nights on Dave from Oct 4th.

9pm, 11.40pm – RDX.
9.40pm, 10.20pm, 11pm, 12.20am, 1am, 1.35am – Classic repeats: RDIV (4th & 11th)/RDV (18th)

[Claire]

So there will be a same day repeat of the new eps. Good. :)

Where did you find those listings? Dave’s website?

[si]

Not Dave’s website (though if you do a ‘Red Dwarf’ search, the dates will pop up in the list), but the UKTV site.

I see the same-night repeat is the *only* repeat during the week. I also see there’s a couple of repeated episodes of Carpool on Saturday mornings from 6th October (plus the odd journey on weekday mornings).

[JamesTC]

‘Trojan’ is repeated on Saturday at 10pm and on Wednesday at 8:20pm. Same time and day for the ‘Fathers and Suns’ repeats.

[si]

Where did they appear from? I had a good look earlier and I swear I never saw them! *wipes specs*

[Claire]

Belated thanks for that link. My internet’s been down.

[Jonsmad]

11.40pm for me then. As I work till 10pm. And what about the dave streaming website repeat thing that was launching? how quick is it on there i wonder?
