Best Byte?

[Warbodog]

When you’ve already worked out your current Red Dwarf episode ranking, but time keeps marching on and just begging to be murdered, why not work out which obsolete three-episode VHS tape that hasn’t been commercially available for 20 years offers the best value, according to that ranking?

My best is Series V Byte Two (‘Quarantine’).

Based on the Silver Survey, here are G&T readers’ best bytes, as of almost five years ago. I used the non-mathematical method of +1 rank = +1 point and adding those up, because I gave up maths after GCSE.

1. Series III Byte One
2. Series VI Byte One
3. Series II Byte One
4. Series V Byte One
5. Series V Byte Two
6. Series IV Byte Two
7. Series I Byte Two
8. Series II Byte Two
9. Series III Byte Two
10. Series IV Byte One
11. Series VI Byte Two
12. Series I Byte One
13. Series VII Byte One
14. Series VIII Byte 1 (4 episodes)
15. Series VII Byte Two
16. Series VII Byte Three (2 episodes)
17. Series VIII Byte 2 (4 episodes)

Discuss? You don’t have to.

It would have been interesting to include the fake bytes from Back to Earth and X.

Yeah. Can’t be bothered to re-calculate it now though, and the fresh reactions to X might not have been that reliable anyway.
