Things Exactly 2 Episodes Have In Common

[Flap Jack]

Just taking Technopeasant’s advice to spin this game off from The Gallifrey Gals’ own thread.

Currently unanswered connections:

Terrorform and Skipper (by clem)

Tikka to Ride and Lemons (by International Debris)

Future Echoes also doesn’t resolve the Series VIII cliffhanger.

There may be more.

Daddy Pig

That should obviously be the correct answer, but it’s a bit too good, really. My answer doesn’t actually appear in the episodes (and I’m not completely sure it is only those two, but I think so).

Two Episodes that may or may not have a unique behind the scenes connection thread 

[loadoftottnumb]

Backwards and The Promised Land
Both begin with a recap in the form of text on screen. 
Sorry for late reply, not the answer I was looking for. 
The answer involves the cast 

Kryten stand-ins, specifically due to Robert unavailability (otherwise Out of Time would count.) 

That’s it mate, also Beyond a Joke had a stand in but Bobby was there

Polymorph and Twentica 

Episodes where characters gain access to places by pretending to be bunnies

Ongoing games:

Nanarchy and Twentica (Ben Saunders)

i thought it was something to do with bums but anything I came up with felt too vague

[clem]

Polymorph and Twentica (clem)

Not what I was thinking of. It’s something Lister does.

[clem]

Anyway there’s also

[Ben Saunders]

Polymorph and Twentica… It’s something Lister does.

He drinks out of an Erlenmeyer flask

One-nil to Warbodog-poos.

We’ve definitely moved on from the era of things you’re surprised are in so few episodes.

Please remember to pick it up rather than leaving it on the sidewalk or grass

That was very inconsiderate of Rob and Doug back in 1988 to not have a future echo explaining a solo written cliffhanger from ten years later. This is honestly more annoying than the tease in The Beginning and I want my money back.

[Technopeasant]

Bay 47

That almost makes me wonder if that is meant as a subconscious means of telling them they aren’t right in the head. Or you know, they just liked the number.

Something like the Programme Guide or Smegazine speculated about that back in the day. They were the last two made that series, so it seems Easter Eggy.

Star Trek deliberately includes 47s a lot, but that only started in the 1990/91 season, so probably not a reference at this point.

D.N.A. and Psirens (Warbodog) – Behind-the-scenes

Paul McGuinness as the curry monster and the psiren Lister kisses? 

[Warbodog]

Paul McGuinness as the curry monster and the psiren Lister kisses? 

If that works, it’s another better answer.

This is about related extra content not in the episodes themselves, but not deleted scenes or smeg ups either.

[loadoftottnumb]

Something filmed for comic relief? 

[Warbodog]

Something filmed for comic relief? 

Yep.

1991 (DNA ship set):

1993 (Cat’s Psirens outfit):

1997 was just repackaged smeg-ups.

Not sure if there were others and this is invalid. Not Children in Need, that’s different.

Paul McGuinness as the curry monster and the psiren Lister kisses?

It’s him inside both of those costumes but I can’t say for certain he’s not in any other episodes.

Backwards and The Beginning

[Dave]

Emohawk and The Promised Land.

Nanarchy and Twentica (Ben Saunders)

Gunmen and Rimmerworld (Ben Saunders)

Only the Good and Back to Earth (Part One) (Ben Saunders)

Backwards and The Beginning (clem) 

Emohawk and The Promised Land (Dave)

[Quinn: Clochebusters World Champion]

Nanarchy and Twentica (Ben Saunders)

[Ben Saunders]

I was astonished at there being two one-armed (bandit) references in XI, you got me with that one.

[Quinn: Clochebusters World Champion]

I’ll give the answer because it’ll be obvious in context of the conversarion

But Nanarchy and Samsara both have one armed bandit in the dialogue 

[Warbodog]

Emohawk and The Promised Land.

Besides this?

[clem]

Nanarchy and Samsara both have one armed bandit in the dialogue 

OK but what’s the thing Nanarchy has in common with Twentica?

[Dave]

Oh, did we have the Shit connection already? I must have missed that, sorry.

[Ben Saunders]

OK but what’s the thing Nanarchy has in common with Twentica?

It’s to do with Lister, but not the one-armed bandit

[Warbodog]

[Ben Saunders]

ding ding ding ding ding! you got it

[clem]

Apologies guys, didn’t mean to sound arsey in my last post. I was confused as I thought Quinn had gotten the Nanarchy/Twentica connection but was saying the answer was also true of Samsara. Sorry to take up your valuable time. Sorry. Thank you, sorry. Bye.

Better Than Life and Thanks for the Memory.

[clem]

Better Than Life and Thanks for the Memory.

The observation dome? One for the ‘I could’ve sworn that was in more than two episodes’ pile.

[Moonlight]

Depends if you want to count the gravesite in Back to Earth.

Not what I was thinking, but a good answer.

It involves Rimmer, or more specifically, calling him something.

[clem]

It involves Rimmer, or more specifically, calling him something.

This is very tenuous but women in Rimmer’s life who you wouldn’t normally expect to address him by his surname nevertheless call him “Rimmer”, namely his mother in the letter in BTL, and Lise Yates in his false memory of her.

[Warbodog]

It does seem like the start of a running joke in those episodes that doesn’t carry on. This could be related too, though maybe not with the careful way clem worded it:

[clem]

Back to Reality and Tikka to Ride: Xtended version

Twonk.

Timewave and Tikka to Ride: Xtended version. Dialogue.

[Ian Symes]

Droopy ass titties.

[Warbodog]

Droopy ass titties.

It doesn’t get more Xtended than those.

[Technopeasant]

If you have titties drooping from your ass, see a physician.

EDIT: what a way to start a page.
