You do that… October 28, 2012 at 5:16 am #202955 genericnerdyusernameParticipant Sounds hilarious. (…) October 28, 2012 at 10:43 am #202958 siParticipant Plots for RDXI? In a Twenty fifth anniversary special, the crew rediscover the stasis leak, which now only takes them back as far as the events of series one. As they know their future selves weren’t around at the time, they leave again, but not before hiding and indulging in some BTTF2 style revisiting of old events using split screens and stuff. Even though, admittedly, they kind of did that joke in Stasis Leak anyway. Oh, whatever, it was the first thing I thought of, leave me alone… October 28, 2012 at 11:36 am #202959 Seb PatrickKeymaster I would like to see an episode revolving around the fact that the word “butter” has “butt” in it. October 28, 2012 at 12:25 pm #202960 ReeceParticipant I always thought about an episode where the crew find an abandoned DivaDroid space station. It would be very much a Kryten-based story. He finds failed experiments and sympathises with them, kinda like Ripley from Alien Resurrection when she finds the failed clones. October 28, 2012 at 12:50 pm #202961 siParticipant Red Dwarf/Hyperdrive crossover. October 28, 2012 at 12:57 pm #202962 NoFroParticipant Strike a light, Si’s a genius! … … October 28, 2012 at 1:11 pm #202963 siParticipant Well, I try my best….you’re being sarcastic, aren’t you? October 28, 2012 at 1:47 pm #202964 Danny StephensonKeymaster He finds failed experiments and sympathises with them, kinda like Ripley from Alien Resurrection when she finds the failed clones. That is when Kryten realises that the chest plate wasn’t just a decorative circle. but it was a ‘0’ and he was the first in a line of experiments where they kept trying…. and failed… October 28, 2012 at 1:51 pm #202965 NoFroParticipant “Beyond an Experiment” October 28, 2012 at 1:55 pm #202966 ReeceParticipant but it was a ‘0′ and he was the first in a line of experiments where they kept trying…. and failed… It’s the perfect plot, I tell you! October 28, 2012 at 3:07 pm #202967 Pecospete666Participant Another one Could be Cat World! Where his one set of ancestors went to! I Think the other ship flew into the sun! Throw in a few advanced Dogs as antagonist! The Church of Lister should be in it,Nuns Bishops,Pope! that should appeal to RD religion sant! October 28, 2012 at 3:49 pm #202968 RidleyParticipant That is when Kryten realises that the chest plate wasn’t just a decorative circle. but it was a ‘0′ and he was the first in a line of experiments where they kept trying…. and failed… I could see this happening. October 28, 2012 at 4:02 pm #202969 Pecospete666Participant I like Si’s anniversary show but it should be 1 hour+ long! October 28, 2012 at 5:10 pm #202970 siParticipant How about an anniversary show where the cast introduce clips from past shows, but in costume? October 28, 2012 at 5:29 pm #202971 genericnerdyusernameParticipant It’ll never happen. October 28, 2012 at 8:03 pm #202980 Pecospete666Participant Si’s would be cheap to make! And the most fitting or the occasion! but they all would have to be there! plus guest stars! October 28, 2012 at 8:04 pm #202981 Stephen R. FletcherParticipant I can’t think of ideas for future plots, but I do have a scene in my head: LISTER: Kryten, I’m home! KRYTEN: What? Already, sir? LISTER: Yes. October 28, 2012 at 8:17 pm #202983 pfmParticipant I want a VII-done-right, almost-TNG-ripoff one where Kryten is flying Blue Midget alone and is either attacked or hit by an asteroid, resulting in him crashing on a nearby moon. The rest of the crew get to him but he’s badly damaged, with his whole body crushed beyond repair. Barely being able to speak, he manages to get out one clear word – ‘nettie’ before closing his eyes. Rimmer, checking a panel on Kryten’s side, says ‘his systems have stopped functioning’ and Lister says ‘no, man, he’s dead…’ and they walk away. Later, back on the Dwarf, Lister goes down to Kryten’s quarters. Realising he’s never actually been inside, he tries the door, only to be prompted for an entry code. Punching in ‘nettie’, as the door opens he’s suddenly bombarded with loud music by none other than Rastabilly Skank! After a brief ‘what the smeg?’ he walks in and there’s a mechanoid with its back to him, ‘hi dad…’ she says as she turns and both she and Lister scream. Kryten has spent the past 10 years building his own mechanoid child and…yeah there’s not much that could be done with that idea but Nettie would end up rebuilding Kryten and then have to die somehow (as all female characters must do on this show ;))…that would be it. Or the crew find a nudist planet, populated by GELFs. October 28, 2012 at 8:39 pm #202986 srmcd1Participant Or maybe Nettie could fall in love with a green blobby GELF. October 28, 2012 at 11:18 pm #202992 clemParticipant That reminds me of the Batman: The Brave and the Bold episode where Red Tornado builds a robot son. It is sad. October 29, 2012 at 1:35 am #202994 Ben PaddonParticipant I think the Cat should do a shit. October 29, 2012 at 1:41 am #202995 srmcd1Participant And he should do it backwards. October 29, 2012 at 1:44 am #202996 Pecospete666Participant In a litter box? October 29, 2012 at 1:47 am #202997 pfmParticipant An episode where they do some actual mining. October 29, 2012 at 1:48 am #202998 RidleyParticipant I think the Cat should do a shit. Adapt Carter’s fan comic? They should, yes. October 29, 2012 at 2:27 am #203000 Ben PaddonParticipant I’d like to see an actual dwarf, painted red. October 29, 2012 at 10:55 pm #203043 srmcd1Participant I know we’re taking the piss out of this thread, but I just thought of a cliffhanger… Lister and co get attacked by another weird space entity that forces them to choose between two of their greatest desires. Some would be funny, like Cat trying to decide between two different suits, and some would be serious, like Rimmer becoming an officer or having real friends. But the final one would be Lister’s decision: the creature opens a portal in space big enough for Red Dwarf to pass through that could take them back to Earth, but they don’t know what time period they’ll wind up in, and it’ll close permanently as soon as they’re on the other side. But the choice comes from this: does he take a chance at returning to Earth in an unknown era, or does he stay out in deep space and keep looking for Kochanski? October 29, 2012 at 11:19 pm #203045 CarlitoParticipant Why would he choose Earth in an unknown era at all? If it was the Earth he wanted to return to (‘present’ day or at least the time period he originated from), then you got a dilemma. Otherwise, he’s been to Earth several times already, out of his own time. He didn’t stay then, why would he abandon his dream now? October 29, 2012 at 11:38 pm #203047 ConnellParticipant They should do one with dinosaurs. And it should have eight parts, each more tedious than the previous. October 30, 2012 at 1:17 am #203057 JamesTCParticipant I want an episode in which Lister says “Starbug too” and Kryten mishears him. Hilarious consequences. October 30, 2012 at 2:14 am #203063 Danny StephensonKeymaster I want episodes where some really intriguing, interesting concepts were introduced, not just hokey stupid idea like dinosaurs, ideas that make you think well past watching the episo— what? That’s happened already?… So it has!! October 30, 2012 at 8:35 am #203067 RidleyParticipant Just because for some reason VIII doesn’t hit your G&T-spot, I don’t see how the concepts could never have been turned into better received episodes. October 30, 2012 at 7:26 pm #203109 Ben PaddonParticipant Series VII was choc-a-bloc with brilliant ideas, I thought. VIII had some too. November 1, 2012 at 3:15 pm #203208 Kris CarterParticipant “Adapt Carter’s fan comic? They should, yes.” Oohhh, hush you… November 8, 2012 at 2:05 am #203452 peas_and_cornParticipant >LISTER: Kryten, I’m home! >KRYTEN: What? Already, sir? >LISTER: Yes. Look out, Kryten! November 9, 2012 at 12:43 pm #203526 takerdemonParticipant >LISTER: Kryten, I’m home! >KRYTEN: What? Already, sir? >LISTER: Yes. THIS! November 9, 2012 at 1:15 pm #203529 stubblelessParticipant I want an episode where Lister gets a rash… on his bum November 9, 2012 at 1:19 pm #203531 Pete Part ThreeParticipant I want an episode where Lister gets a VD from a vending machine. November 9, 2012 at 1:36 pm #203533 CackThosePantsParticipant Rimmer meets Brittas. I’d like an episode where they explore more of the ship like everyone elses quarters etc. BRING BACK HATTIE AND STARBUG! November 9, 2012 at 1:50 pm #203535 NoFroParticipant I’d like to see them revisit old parts of the ship. Not necessarily key sets like the bunk rooms, but it’d be nice if they had to go to a different part of the ship in an episode and the set design evoked the series 1-2 look or 3-5 look or even the BTE style. November 9, 2012 at 2:39 pm #203536 PhilParticipant I’d like to see them revisit comedy. November 9, 2012 at 2:42 pm #203538 mickParticipant I’d like to see more Native American dwarfs. November 9, 2012 at 11:50 pm #203580 JamesTCParticipant Episode 1: Kryten is arrested when he is mistaken for a serial killer. After he is exonerated, Rimmer, Lister, and he return to Red Dwarf. Episode 2: Simulant television executives approach Rimmer and Lister to write a pilot for a sitcom. Hogey the Roguey begins to stalk both Rimmer and Kryten. Episode 3: Cat uses Kryten as his witness when the former refuses to pay for a speeding ticket. In court, they make up a story of why he was he going that fast: Cat was trying to stop Kryten from killing himself because he didn’t get a job as a banker. Episode 4: Rimmer’s parents come to Red Dwarf to see a medi-bot for the back pain of Rimmer’s father. Morty Rimmer thinks his wallet has been stolen at the medi-bot’s. So he leaves without hearing the diagnosis. Rimmer is asked to explain to his parents why he does not wear the watch they gave him. Lister has an unsuccessful plan to hold out for more money for their simulant pilot (13,000 all together). Episode 5: Rimmer tries to buy his watch back from Uncle Frank, who found it in the garbage, having been thrown there by Rimmer. Lister tries to resurrect the fledgling simulant deal, while Kochanski plans a break up from her psychotherapist with Kryten’s help. Lister gets the pilot back, by accepting less money (8,000). Episode 6: Rimmer agrees to visit a boy who lives in a plastic bubble on the way to Holly’s parents’ cabin. Rimmer loses his way, though, and Kochanski, Lister, and Holly visit the boy instead. Kryten goes to the cabin with Rimmer’s ex-girlfriend, resulting in a fire November 10, 2012 at 9:39 am #203591 Pete Part ThreeParticipant And perhaps open each episode with Doug doing some observational comedy about telesales. November 10, 2012 at 9:48 am #203592 srmcd1Participant I find it funny that Lister is George. Also the visual of Rimmer doing stand up comedy. November 10, 2012 at 12:19 pm #203594 CackThosePantsParticipant They need to do a Christmas special. Didn’t Doug plan one a while back? November 10, 2012 at 1:20 pm #203595 MoonlightParticipant We’ll never forget Red Christmas. November 10, 2012 at 2:29 pm #203597 Stephen R. FletcherParticipant >LISTER: Kryten, I’m home! >KRYTEN: What? Already, sir? >LISTER: Yes. THIS! I would prefer the scene be shot without a studio audience, but with pauses for laughter left in.
