There wasn’t ever going to be a version of the anniversary specials with someone other than Tennant as the Doctor.

To play devil’s advocate: It’s possible someone wanted it to be made clear that Ncuti had left the show and a more ambiguous ending didn’t suffice for that.

He said he “thought” there were a couple of different “versions”, so presumably story outlines at most. Best I can tell from all available information out there: the original announcement of the Christmas special was made before everyone had all their ducks in a row to demonstrate the BBC were still committed to the show and combat negative press. There was some legitimate attempt to make it happen but there was always (at best) a significant amount of doubt about whether or not it would, and in the end there was never even a budget agreed.

I don’t think it matters either way.

May 3, 2026 at 6:17 pm in reply to: How Series VII should have started #319583 cwickhamParticipant This dislodged some memories of going through alt.tv.red-dwarf to find reports of people who’d been at the VII recordings, so I tried to do it again just now: https://groups.google.com/g/alt.tv.red-dwarf/c/TVlN4ryjuZw/m/enbvrWDNNHgJ “All the eps have been shown to audiences, but different audiences. There were three screenings on the Friday, and three on the Saturday, and three episodes were shown at each. Odd really, as six times 3 is 18, and 18 doesn’t divide by 8, the number of shows that actually exist.” (comment from Thursday, 31st October, 1996) EDIT: Also a report here from someone who saw Duct Soup, Beyond a Joke and Nanarchy https://groups.google.com/g/alt.tv.red-dwarf/c/Qxl_cryXtRk/m/GETA3Ur8x3cJ May 2, 2026 at 8:59 am in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #319544 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 02/05/2026 Camille May 1, 2026 at 7:42 am in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #319485 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 01/05/2026 G&T April 30, 2026 at 4:44 pm in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #319435 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 30/04/2026 April 29, 2026 at 7:33 am in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #319339 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 29/04/2026 TBAJDSTTR April 27, 2026 at 7:28 am in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #319245 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 27/04/2026 Timewave April 25, 2026 at 8:54 am in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #319200 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 25/04/2026 PTEWHD&A April 22, 2026 at 7:54 am in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #318995 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 22/04/2026 Polymorph April 21, 2026 at 4:49 pm in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #318971 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 21/04/2026 Legion, The Inquisitor April 18, 2026 at 8:36 am in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #318802 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 18/04/2026 OTG, BITR1 April 16, 2026 at 8:31 am in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #318731 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 16/04/2026 April 15, 2026 at 8:05 am in reply to: Smugle or Strugle? – Dispatches From Smegle #318677 cwickhamParticipant #RedDwarf #Smegle 15/04/2026 BTRPWH Author Replies Viewing 50 replies - 1 through 50 (of 4,898 total) 1 2 3 … 96 97 98
