Red Dwarf – The Smeg Ups – Is this new?

[JamesTC]

Looking at the infomation for this it looks like Smeg Ups the broadcast edition but it says new on the infomation, just curious if anybody knows if this is actually new.

It’s new cos it’s never been on Dave before. It would seem to be the one from Red Dwarf Night, 1998.

[Dax101]

it says its presented by patrick stewart and has outtakes from all 7 series… so proberly not

[JamesTC]

I have the Just the Smegs DVD with it on but it is 30 minutes long and I think it only have Smeg Ups from Series 4-6.

[Zombie Jim Undead]

Oh, it’s new. Smeg ups from Back to Earth. Bobby Llew mentioned it on Twitter.

When’s it on?

[Zombie Jim Undead]

Unless it’s not.

But I presumed it was?

[hummingbird]

I thought it was the old one.
Why would they show the smeg ups for BtE, when that’s probably going to be one of the extras on the DVD?

I can’t find this – can you link me to the update? We’ll front page it if so, ‘cos we were under the assumption it was old material…

[JamesTC]

I think someone told him it was new and he was suprised by it, I don’t think he actually said it was new.

[Zombie Jim Undead]

What he said.

Just checked. His comment is “Oh, Dave are running the smeg ups after part 2 tomorrow? Didn’t know that! Gulp!”

So I presume it’s not actually BtE smegs.

[JamesTC]

I think it might be using old smeg ups but without links in the middle and a new opening by Pat.

99.9% its old. Broadcast schedule from TOS:

Saturday, April 11th from 9pm
Back to Earth – Part Two
Smeg Ups
Polymorph
Emohawk – Polymorph II

The new stuff is in bold. And only Back to Earth was bold. So I say old.

[JamesTC]

Eh I will still watch it.

[Ian Symes]

If it was new stuff, we’d have been told that explicitly by TOS and Dave.

[Michael Warren]

No, it’s the RDNight one – even kept in the Patrick Stewart intro.

[Michael Warren]

That Inquistor sequence makes me laugh every time. Even though I’ve seen it thirty million times.
