He mentions the weather, tanks, and his dislike of people requesting his appearance on podcasts; but he also included this tidbit on future Red Dwarf and Brittas Empire:

“At the risk of repeating something I seem to have said many times over the last umpteen years, I simply do not know if/when we will be doing more Red Dwarf. Over the winter of 2015/16 when we made series 11 and 12, some common sense momentum seemed to be building, but, since then, the project seems to have juddered to a halt. In the desert of silence I do encounter the occasional droplet of positivity but that’s it. If the droplet ever becomes a trickle, I shall of course leap to the keyboard and let you know.

The Brittas position is not dissimilar. Since the promising newspaper articles of a couple of years ago and the enthusiasm of the Reunion last year, it all seems to have gone all quiet on the Whitbury front. All I can do is continue to express my desire to recreate the chainsaw voiced ogre and that is something I shall certainly keep doing.”

Thanks to Chris Barrie Fans for making this known on Twitter.

Not really newsworthy, but I figure this is the best place to mention the latest She’s a Rec, which features a quick anecdote from Tim Key about going for a drink with Steve Coogan, and Coogan offering up thoughts about his and Chris Barrie’s varying impressions of Neil Kinnock on Spitting Image. 

“His was really good, but mine was better” was the gist of it. “He pitched it in the wrong octave.” 

See? Told you it wasn’t really newsworthy.
