    Tremendous. Better mask than Series X.

    This popped up on my feed too. I love the ‘I’m almost annoyed’ expression in particular,  and Chris Barrie pulled that face in the last picture when I told him a joke the one time I met him.

    I kind of love the way that mask looks. It’s almost like a cartoon caricature of Kryten in live action.

    I can’t quite put into words why, but I really do like that mask/costume.

    Also, today I learned the word “squiffy.” I wondered if Squiffy Kryten was some character I should have been aware of.

    I love this as a stylised take on Kryten. The expression in that first photo looks a bit like he’s using Spare Head Three.

    Looks like Butterball from Hellraiser

    Well, so much for sleeping tonight.

    Chris to his wife when he gets home: “Crikey. Bobby’s let himself go.”

    I am sure he’s actually lovely in person but the way he wears his glasses lately always makes Chris look like he’s about to say something cuttingly sarcastic.

    Presumably he puts his glasses on to type. Hence the scary shit he types.

    I’ve heard and read from many fans that, in real life, he’s been absolutely lovely to you all. I suppose a lot of people are like that – it’s easy to hate and dislike a group of people, but one-by-one it’s impossible to be rude to them.

    My Dad’s passed on now, but he was a self-identified racist, and he was clearly also misogynistic. But I never once heard him be rude to anyone in person.

    I love the look of Squiffy Kryten but I hope he doesn’t speak.

    Also I hope that he was designed to look like that, and his overall shape is unrelated to the person inside.

    I’m trying to remember what he reminds me of.  I’m not sure but it might be the squished Griff Rhys Jones that ends up peeled as a sticker in these brilliant opening titles.

    Sontaran Kryten?

    Sontaran Kryten?

    Ah yeah, maybe that’s what was in my mind.

    Squished Griff Rhys Jones is well worth remembering though from time to time.  He’d probably have been flatmates with Squiffy Kryten if things had worked out differently.
