Not a bad little segment, IMO. Were those interviews new, or do I just not recognise them? So much for being “snubbed”. RD came off better than, say, the thirty seconds of disconnected nonsense-clips that Reeves and Mortimer got. April 27, 2014 at 12:34 am #210133 Pecospete666Participant Certainly dismisses any prejudice against the show! I wonder why Doug was not in it? Really surprised to see Rob! April 27, 2014 at 8:02 pm #210136 ClaireParticipant I have a feeling that programme was made 10 years ago for the 40th anniversary. You can tell from Chris and Robert’s respective hairlines. ;) Not to sound as though I believe the “RD is being snubbed” thing – it seems pretty obvious that that was a misunderstanding. April 28, 2014 at 2:31 am #210137 pfmParticipant You’ve got to love them cutting from Rob talking about the ratings and reviews of series 1 to clips from VII…xD April 28, 2014 at 9:13 am #210138 Nick RParticipant I have a feeling that programme was made 10 years ago for the 40th anniversary. You can tell from Chris and Robert’s respective hairlines. ;) Yes, Jeremy Clarkson and Ian Hislop looked much younger too. Oh, and the fact that Anthony Minghella was alive was another clue… April 28, 2014 at 12:24 pm #210139 Bexley HeathParticipant Ah, now. The end of the programme gave the date MMXIV, but yeah, everyone did look suspiciously young. So presumably it’s been infinitesimally revamped from the 40th anniversary programme. Sneaky buggers. April 28, 2014 at 2:02 pm #210140 Stephen R. FletcherParticipant The interviews with Rob, Robert and Chris looked really familiar to me. I remember having watched them before – I know I definitely heard Rob’s stalker story before. So yeah, I assumed these were recorded for the 40th anniversary programme.

April 28, 2014 at 6:48 pm #210142 siParticipant I’m sure someone transcibed it on a blog – maybe even here? – when it was originally on the 40th anniversary? April 28, 2014 at 7:01 pm #210143 siParticipant Here we are. Ten years ago, some stupid cunt (ahem) transcribed the Red Dwarf Bit from BBC2’s 40th Anniversary celebrations, and submitted it to some other cunts on a website.

Pssh, and I don’t even have the excuse that I was too young to remember it the first time. April 29, 2014 at 7:33 pm #210148 MANI506Participant Thank you Si!

New interview moment, and dwarf clips back on bbc2 Chris Barrie appears, to transition from Hitchhikers into Dwarf’s 1 minute of coverage in 50 years of bbc two comedy. He doesn’t do a bad job, though he mentions nerds a bit, he says the show is special because of the blend of sci fi and comedy. They didn’t choose the lightbulb or the boxer shorts, amongst visual clips they went with the “badly needed a pen” joke. They use the TV screen from Kryten episode, to good effect, in a trope the whole documentary uses, finding tv screen on screen in the shows in order to move back to bbc 2 logo. Though, for this Caption… 1998 – 1999 Fuck off BBC2. May 27, 2014 at 12:20 am #210216 RidleyParticipant I liked it when they said smeg. Nice of Alan Alda to do that whole “people need a laugh track to know where the jokes are” thang when speaking of Americans. Shame Mathew Baynton and Prunella Scales only got one or two sentences.
