Scroll to bottom Creator Topic December 31, 2017 at 12:53 am #226467 GlenTokyoParticipant Seems like something would have been leaked because of the cast if it was anything major involving them BBFC filings and such would come out if it was some kind of DVD or Blu-ray Maybe it’ll be a Dave mini Dwarf night, lots of episodes maybe with some cast interviews but I’m thinking we’re getting announcements. New series announcement on the TV? Commentaries for download? A new book or something? What do you think?

December 31, 2017 at 8:30 am #226472 siParticipant A book’d be nice. ‘Red Dwarf: A Celebration’, that kind of thing. December 31, 2017 at 9:03 am #226473 DaveParticipant Nowt. December 31, 2017 at 11:46 am #226474 (deleted)Participant I have a sad suspicion it’ll be fuck all as well. Bearing in mind they’ve got about five weeks to go. Probably an ‘announcement’ about XII/the tour but zero ‘stuff’. This is why they should have held XII back a tiny bit longer… December 31, 2017 at 11:51 am #226475 bloodtellerParticipant >Bearing in mind they’ve got about five weeks to go but 2018 is fifty-two weeks long December 31, 2017 at 1:21 pm #226477 Me Own StuntsParticipant >but 2018 is fifty-two weeks long Not all of it. December 31, 2017 at 6:16 pm #226482 International DebrisParticipant Probably an ‘announcement’ about XII Doug comes on stage at DJ. “I’m over the moon to announce that Red Dwarf XII will be broadcast last year!” then eats an egg forwards. December 31, 2017 at 9:49 pm #226485 RidleyParticipant A tweet. December 31, 2017 at 11:25 pm #226487 bloodtellerParticipant what about sex? January 1, 2018 at 4:16 pm #226490 (deleted)Participant Not here, it’s too sandy. January 1, 2018 at 7:29 pm #226492 Jonathan CappsKeymaster Doug comes on stage at DJ. “I’m over the moon to announce that Red Dwarf XII will be broadcast last year!” then eats an egg forwards. Amazing. January 2, 2018 at 12:25 pm #226495 MoonlightParticipant I was going to nominate that post for the Hall of Fame, but now that the Hall of Fame is a literal thing such nominations are probably invalid. I’m still doing it. January 3, 2018 at 12:44 am #226501 Plastic PercyParticipant I’d quite like eBooks of the four novels, or at least the Omnibus. January 3, 2018 at 9:40 am #226505 DaveParticipant I’m hoping for a countdown clock on the website. January 3, 2018 at 3:25 pm #226509 bloodtellerParticipant a remake of The End using the sets from XII and Skipper January 3, 2018 at 3:25 pm #226510 bloodtellerParticipant well obviously thats not going to happen, but it would be good, wouldnt it? January 4, 2018 at 7:18 pm #226533 Plastic PercyParticipant Most likely Doug confirming that XIII will be out in two or three years time. Sadly I think the time of merchandise being anything other than t-shirts, badges and lanyards is behind us. Who’d ever think we’d be nostalgic for the days of Duane Dibbley bobbleheads? January 4, 2018 at 9:51 pm #226537 bloodtellerParticipant i’d love to see some more merchandise like the Starbug model that came with the Series V DVD. it’s a really nice model, lots of detail and it looks good on my shelf. something like that for the Red Dwarf ship would be bloody lovely. or another Scriptbook like the VIII one, that’d be amazing. or y’know, we could just have another lot of mediocre t-shirts and crap hoodies. January 4, 2018 at 11:28 pm #226538 GlenTokyoParticipant The t-shirts have been particularly poor this time round. London Jets and Mugs apart, which are hard to get wrong (though I could do without the series branding), almost all of the others I have issues with. The Leopard lager one has the wrong font, the XII one where they’re all Kryten is just bad, the Red Dwarf Haynes one has spelling and factual errors, and all the Haynes share the issue that they’re obviously ripping off Haynes but didn’t bother to do a mechanical drawing with internal gubbins. I like the no longer insane one design wise but not as an item of clothing you’d actually wear, and the hoodies are hit and miss. The technician one is nice but is ruined by the series branding. January 5, 2018 at 10:20 am #226551 bloodtellerParticipant the lanyard is a bit crap too. i mean who’d want that? is there some sort of market for lanyards that i am currently unaware of? January 5, 2018 at 4:33 pm #226554 flanl3Participant actually, yes. January 5, 2018 at 5:40 pm #226555 NoFroParticipant As someone who works in an office where everyone has a security pass, yes there is. I honestly find it a bit weird when I have a meeting with a higher up who wears an expensive suit and decides to compliment it with a cheap Game of Thrones lanyard. January 12, 2018 at 10:11 am #226798 CB3Participant Looking ahead at the TV schedules, it appears that Dave will be celebrating the 30th anniversary of the exact moment when Red Dwarf was first broadcast with a repeat showing of Timewave. That’s… somewhat disappointing. January 12, 2018 at 12:30 pm #226799 International DebrisParticipant That’s hilarious. January 12, 2018 at 1:21 pm #226800 DaveParticipant Someone said “30th anniversary” but Dave thought they said “spit on a wrist”. January 12, 2018 at 1:45 pm #226801 flanl3Participant “I lick you” January 12, 2018 at 2:05 pm #226802 (deleted)Participant I have nearly died laughing. January 12, 2018 at 3:30 pm #226804 thomasaevansParticipant A lot of anniversary material comes out over the year of the anniversary rather than on the exact date. Thunderbirds & Captain Scarlet are prime examples of this. There is a complete 50th Anniversary blu-ray box set for Captain Scarlet coming after the vanilla releases, but the date of the 50th has long since passed BUT it’s still the year of the anniversary. I mentioned in another post that the blu-rays are listed again on Amazon and Zavvi for February, maybe it’s nothing. I’d love another book tbh… and that kinda merchandise would surely be better released in the autumn for the Christmas market? January 21, 2018 at 4:14 pm #226924 Captain BollocksParticipant One of the things I’ve enjoyed most about Dave-era Dwarf is how modern technology has allowed the fandom to be more involved and interactive with each other. If not for this place, I don’t think I’d really talk much Dwarf with anyone, and certainly not to the nerdy extent that things are discussed here. With that in mind, would it be too late to ask for a live anniversary Dwarfcast on the 15th, presumably right after we all watch Timewave at 9pm on Dave? Or, you know, something slightly more appropriate like The End on DVD at 9pm? January 21, 2018 at 5:09 pm #226926 Ian SymesKeymaster would it be too late to ask for a live anniversary Dwarfcast on the 15th Only in the sense that we were going to do it anyway. January 21, 2018 at 11:10 pm #226927 flanl3Participant Only in the sense that we were going to do it anyway. It’s only January and I think we already have a strong contender for scandal of the year. I can’t believe you all were just going to go ahead and do a DwarfCast without our permission. January 22, 2018 at 3:58 pm #226931 MoonlightParticipant That’s it, I’m going to find Ed Bye at Dimension Jump and tell him I’m never listening to DwarfCast again! January 22, 2018 at 7:28 pm #226933 Ian SymesKeymaster If Ed Bye ever came to Dimension Jump, you can guarantee we’d get a new ident to play at the end of each DwarfCast. January 22, 2018 at 8:48 pm #226936 RidleyParticipant The sound of Ed Bye being kneed in the testicles. January 22, 2018 at 10:36 pm #226938 HamishParticipant That’s never happened before. January 23, 2018 at 1:00 am #226939 bloodtellerParticipant i think for the 30th anniversary, we’ll get three decades combined into one celebration January 23, 2018 at 7:47 am #226940 Ben SaundersParticipant Which three decades? January 23, 2018 at 4:29 pm #226941 flanl3Participant Tomorrow, lunchtime and The Matrix. January 24, 2018 at 10:52 pm #226958 Stephen AbootmanParticipant Would like to see (at some point) a 30-40 mins Dave era smeg ups shows, preferably with Kryten links. Am sure there must be plenty that wasn’t on the DVDs (certainly I can think of 3 or 4 good examples just from the 3 recordings I went to alone). Too soon for a BTE – XII ‘Just the Shows’ boxset? Also, you should win things by watching. January 24, 2018 at 10:59 pm #226959 cwickhamParticipant So, you want a realistic, down-to-earth show… that’s completely off-the-wall and swarming with magic robots? January 25, 2018 at 6:37 am #226965 (deleted)Participant The Dave era Smeg Ups special is something I’ve wanted for ages. Seems such an open goal! January 25, 2018 at 9:43 pm #226986 Plastic PercyParticipant Smeg Ups, Smeg Outs, Smeg Cloche. January 30, 2018 at 1:35 pm #227078 Seb PatrickKeymaster If Ed Bye ever came to Dimension Jump, you can guarantee we’d get a new ident to play at the end of each DwarfCast. SYMES: So until next time, Ed Bye everybody! EVERYONE: Ed Bye! IDENT: Oh, fuck off, I’m not recording that for you. January 30, 2018 at 1:36 pm #227079 Seb PatrickKeymaster it’s a really nice model, lots of detail and it looks good on my shelf. something like that for the Red Dwarf ship would be bloody lovely. Someone else, gussets, etc. February 3, 2018 at 10:25 am #227177 RamesesNiblickTheThirdBlocked Dave from 9pm on the night are showing back to back classic episodes and Samsara until the early hours….. Perhaps we’ll get an announcement of a new series from Doug? February 4, 2018 at 1:29 pm #227203 DaveParticipant With the Blu-Ray listing update, the announcement of a 1-8 BR boxset seems like a possibility. February 4, 2018 at 3:25 pm #227215 Ben SaundersParticipant “Hi, Doug Naylor here, I know some of you were expecting me to announce a new series of Red Dwarf, but I’m afraid that’s not the case. What I can announce, though, is -nine- new series of Red Dwarf, all to be made concurrently and broadcast in 2019. I’m writing the scripts right now, and have just come back from hospital where I was treated for chronic hypertension.” February 4, 2018 at 5:06 pm #227225 MoonlightParticipant I just saw “Can of Worms IV: White Hole III: Rimmerworld Squared” recorded at Pinewood. It… Uh… I enjoyed the lighting gantry above the studio. Very metallic. The Dave era Smeg Ups special is something I’ve wanted for ages. Seems such an open goal! You mean we could get more than five minutes of them? February 10, 2018 at 4:51 pm #227499 (deleted)Participant Forgot to mention, the other night a Dave announcer specifically confirmed that repeats night is an official anniversary theme night of ‘Dave’s favourite episodes’. So yes, Timewave genuinely is being presented as one of the all-time top 5. February 10, 2018 at 5:58 pm #227501 Stephen AbootmanParticipant I think Timewave might have been the most viewed episode of XII in the official figures (if not, very very close) so I suppose for Dave it would be a big success.
