    The same place as ours. Up until the point Kochanski found Lister’s cat, their universes were the same. The time fork happened at that point.

    I noticed a plot hole the other day… in Back In The Red, the crew are not supposed to know about the ship brig, yet in The Inquisitor they intend to throw the ‘erased’ Lister and Kryten in there. Only sayin’.

    They don’t know about Floor 13, but there is another brig/holding cell in Back In The Red as well, which could be the one mentioned in The Inquisitor.

    Hmm… but maybe the holding cell was built by the nanobots when they redesigned the ship? And if there’s a brig and a holding cell, why was Lister put in one of the ships only two stasis booths as punishment for bringing a cat aboard when they coulda slung him in a cell and made him actually pay for his wrongdoing? I mean, stasis isn’t really much of a punishment is it? I’m sure most prisoners would rather go into stasis than serve a decade behind bars.

    Agreed, but there are 400 prisoners and only enough room in the stasis booths for two people (and two suits).

    Exactly, that’s my point. Why put Lister in there?

    Just to get him out of their hair for a few months, presumably – they don’t have to pay him, feed him or keep him alive.

    They probably would, but that wouldn’t leave much room for rehabilitation.

    That would be my take.
