You can be in Red Dwarf! Did that ever actually happen?

1. Smeg Ups, 1994 – you can be in Red Dwarf VII!

2. Whatever You Want, 2004 – that guy will be in the Red Dwarf film!

3. Deleted UKTV tweet, 2015 – you and a friend can have walk-on parts in Red Dwarf XI/XII!

1 & 2 can be excused by delay and existence failure, but did 3 end up happening?

Has the Smeg Ups winner ever said what they got instead?

Have there been any other notable offers of fabulous prizes no one ended up getting in the end?

Has anyone ever owned up to being Computer Rashes Boy? Aren’t we all Computer Rashes Boy at heart?

Didn’t the Smeg Ups winner end up appearing in Stoke Me A Clipper? I’m sure I heard that somewhere

Oh yeah – “Red Dwarf fan and competition winner Cara Williams was also present as an extra; wearing green to left of the Good Knight.” That’s great then, I always figured they’d just ignored it because of the big gap.

I signed up to a government scheme and betrayed my family and friends.
and I’m still waiting for my fabulous prize.

Nothing.

Not even an apple from these people.
