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.

It looks cool, I saw a lot of people crying over the way it looks but I assumed that was just them deflecting away from the fact that they think electric cars are gay

It doesn’t have the big eyebrows I associate with Ferraris (or the internal combustion engine)

Without derailing this into a discussion about cars…

I think it is fair to lament the loss of cool, new, original design when it comes to new models of cars. They do all look the same now and it’s a shame.

But obviously, the outrage with the electric Ferrari can be boiled to typical knee-jerk techno-fear reaction to any car that dares to be electric.

Electric cars are pretty good provided you don’t store them in brine.
