Potential Red Dwarf US Dwarfcast?

[Ben Paddon]

A while ago I bandied about the idea of doing a Dwarfcast of the first US pilot, with me joining in via the Skypes, provided a non-shit copy could be tracked down.

As it turns out, a non-shit copy could not be tracked down. Bollocks. My next plan is to try and remember which American studios were responsible for the pilot and see if I have any contacts there who might have worked on it or possibly have had access to the pilot at any time.

I have been able to snag a copy of that just-barely-watchable version that everybody else presumably has, so seems to me that now, with the server move and everybody being all busy-like, is the perfect time to record a Dwarfcast! I might even be able to drag along a Token American™ for the ride – I know a couple of American Red Dwarf fans who haven’t seen the pilot yet.

Anyone else interested?

I don’t think I’m going to be around to do it Wednesday night.. look forward to hearing it though.

I wouldn’t mind giving it a go. I haven’t used twitter for conference calls yet, but I’m sure I’ll be able to work it out.

I’ll probably watch it first so I can think of something to say during broadcast. Or maybe I should go for first reactions?

I nominate Tonguetied to moderate the discussion.

You mean Skype.

>You mean Skype.

Indeed I do. I hardly even use Twitter… so trust that to get in my head… (In my defence I hear/read it mentioned so often.)

[Ben Paddon]

If we want to do this tomorrow, we probably want to get coordinated sooner rather than later. If not we’ll do it… I dunno, some other time.

[Carlito]

Did you do it? If not lemme know when you are…

[Phil]

Did this happen? Was I there?

[Dave]

If he’s you and you’re him? And you’re him and he’s him, am I still me? Who’s eating this chicken?

[Ben Paddon]

We didn’t. For a start, no bugger added me on Skype. Also I woke up half an hour after we shoulda started recording. Fun times.

Let’s reschedule.

Sounds like a very neat idea, I love all podcasts that deal with Dwarf! Sorry to hear that it didn’t materialize first time round.
