Always nice when Red Dwarf gets some recognition

I was going to make a batch of Smega-Drive captions making fun of the way it referred to it as “the Red Dwarf”…

… But my caption searches reminded me that the series already named it like that at least once:

Therefore:

The Oregon is THE Oregon, so it’s fair enough to assume other ships would be  referred to similarly at times. 
 Titanic / The Titanic… it’s interchangeable, even though “The Red Dwarf” hits the ear wrong.
Especially if it’s the ramscoop end.

Two other instances are the original continuity announcement and the audiobook of Infinity, where Rimmer’s BTL butler says Lister “claims he was your cohort on the Red Dwarf.” I checked the print novel online (and omnibus) and it doesn’t say “the,” that was Barrie’s inflection.

Is this anything?

That’s The Enlightenment to you.
