That’s Beryl.” Rob just needed to watch an episode filmed close to twenty years later for context. August 15, 2020 at 7:28 pm in reply to: Red Dwarf VIII is flawed #260206 HamishParticipant Ian deserves a place in the Hall of Heroes. August 15, 2020 at 7:20 pm in reply to: Red Dwarf VIII is flawed #260201 HamishParticipant I guess we are all starting to get tiled of this. August 15, 2020 at 7:10 pm in reply to: Red Dwarf VIII is flawed #260198 HamishParticipant You do seem a bit pee-ved. …can we go back to talking about floors now? August 15, 2020 at 1:16 am in reply to: Red Dwarf VIII is flawed #260149 HamishParticipant Now we are all just wing-ing it. August 14, 2020 at 12:55 am in reply to: Red Dwarf VIII is flawed #260114 HamishParticipant Neither is Ben apparently. August 14, 2020 at 12:23 am in reply to: Red Dwarf VIII is flawed #260112 HamishParticipant I don’t think Doug was playing with a full deck when he wrote VIII. August 11, 2020 at 2:19 am in reply to: Worst episodes of series 3-5? #260022 HamishParticipant Because tombow didn’t have the videos as a kid. I think this governs a great deal of fan opinion actually. Which Dwarf you were first introduced to I mean, not tombow’s personal viewing habits. Series V and II were the last of the Grant/Naylor era I got to see in full, and while Series II is now one of my favourites, I have always found Series V to be overrated, and it seems to have been the gateway drug for a lot of people around these parts. July 26, 2020 at 3:39 am in reply to: Unanswered Questions #259816 HamishParticipant Aslong as you don’t remember Trojan where Howard is a hard light hologram and has a light bee. Not really a problem since he was posted to a Quantum Twister class vessel as part of the Space Corps Super Infinity Fleet. “Those Space Corps boys had everything. The buttons, the blasters, the snug elasticated jumpsuits. They had it all!” July 25, 2020 at 11:38 pm in reply to: Unanswered Questions #259812 HamishParticipant It’s just another thing that became forgotten once the whole light bee idea came along. If the light bee is projecting him and can be recharged on Starbug, why would it need a massive ship to power it earlier one? I have always been of the opinion that the light bee as we know it was not native to Red Dwarf and was something that Kryten salvaged from a derelict sometime around Series IV. July 24, 2020 at 3:29 am in reply to: Unanswered Questions #259746 HamishParticipant (ex: being instantly vaporized by a neutron tank in Dimension 165, which makes zero sense if there are infinite dimensions, like why even bother numbering them?) Numbered from the amount of hops from the dimension the Wildfire originated from. Keeps growing infinitely. Simple. July 19, 2020 at 4:56 am in reply to: Unanswered Questions #259690 HamishParticipant Nestene JFK was the actual shooter Lister put behind the grassy knoll. July 15, 2020 at 4:07 am in reply to: Break a Red Dwarf Episode #259623 HamishParticipant DIMENSION JUMP The alternate Space Corps. realize sending their best pilot and experimental ship on a one-way trip to never return is inefficient and stupid and decide to keep Ace on the payroll because why the fuck would you banish your best pilot? To be fair, Rob Grant does address this point in Backwards by having it be an act of defiance by Ace, Spanners, and Bongo. And then he has Ace get killed in a horribly graphic way, because he’s Rob Grant. July 14, 2020 at 6:39 am in reply to: Break a Red Dwarf Episode #259576 HamishParticipant OUROBOROS When Lister encounters a Kochanski from an alternate universe, she has no idea who he is as they barely exchanged any conversation on the pre-accident Red Dwarf and worked completely separately from one another. That said, Lister is able to rekindle his relationship with the parallel version of his rubber plant. July 11, 2020 at 4:19 am in reply to: Unanswered Questions #259562 HamishParticipant I am sure there is a joke in there somewhere. July 10, 2020 at 8:31 pm in reply to: Unanswered Questions #259558 HamishParticipant From Rimmer’s Death Video: HOLLISTER: Look, it was your job to fix it, Rimmer! You can’t do sloppy work on the drive plate! It sounds like they knew it could be a big deal. July 3, 2020 at 4:46 am in reply to: Unanswered Questions #259447 HamishParticipant And the moral of the story is: Appreciate what you’ve got, because basically, Strawberries are fantastic. June 6, 2020 at 5:45 pm in reply to: Loose Ends #258895 HamishParticipant Kill two birds with one stone. Show that Kochanski eloped with Snacky. May 14, 2020 at 5:10 am in reply to: Anyone want some 27 year old bread? #258794 HamishParticipant But not for THE piping hot steak and kidney pie he eats in ‘The End’ though. May 8, 2020 at 12:05 am in reply to: Anyone want some 27 year old bread? #258785 HamishParticipant “Condition: Used” April 15, 2020 at 6:35 am in reply to: Does anybody have the full image of this? #258624 HamishParticipant > Maybe that’s why Cat hallucinates himself as Duane, that is the sort of cat persona he was rebelling against as a kitten before they all buggered off and left him And now we know they left him because he was like Duane to begin with. April 15, 2020 at 6:07 am in reply to: Does anybody have the full image of this? #258623 HamishParticipant > It would make for a proper decent Cat episode (that I guess we thought we’d get with Can of Worms). He might decide he wants to stay with his people, then realise that he has absolutely nothing in common with them or their society, and comes back to Lister et al. RODON: Well, how do you feel now brother? You want to return to our people? Huh? You want to come home? *Cat looks back at Kryten, Rimmer, and Lister* CAT: I am home. This is my home right here! Give Doug some credit, he managed to get quinn_drummer’s entire idea for an episode across in just a little over ten seconds of screen time. April 10, 2020 at 5:22 pm in reply to: Kryten Costume on eBay #258547 HamishParticipant I was just going to say, I was getting Halloween masks. April 4, 2020 at 8:31 pm in reply to: Your Unpopular Red Dwarf Opinions #258405 HamishParticipant X has the best Smeg Ups. Not sure that is unpopular. March 31, 2020 at 8:42 pm in reply to: Radio times: Best Series Poll #258364 HamishParticipant I was unsure which to pick but I settled on VI just to tweak the nose of V. So there. March 31, 2020 at 8:11 pm in reply to: Unanswered Questions #258360 HamishParticipant > Presumably Red Dwarf just completely disappearing would make it a fairly big deal that *everyone* would be talking about. I guess it depends on just how mundane Red Dwarf as a ship was, and how common accidents such as these were. We have no idea how many ships the JMC had in their fleet, or with how much significance the vessel was viewed. Crew numbers also affect this. 169 people lost is different kind of tragedy from 1,169 people lost, just in terms of scale if nothing else. March 30, 2020 at 11:58 pm in reply to: Unanswered Questions #258336 HamishParticipant > Kryten’s home era is at least several hundred years after the Red Dwarf fled the solar system. There would be records as to how human history viewed the loss of the ship. Sure, but are you aware of every maritime tragedy of the last 200 years? March 30, 2020 at 11:55 pm in reply to: Unanswered Questions #258335 HamishParticipant > it’s one thing to have two different pronunciations of the word but two different spellings? March 28, 2020 at 4:26 pm in reply to: Star Trek: Picard #258308 HamishParticipant I have not seen any of this, but Picard being resurrected in a robot body sounds awfully Shatnerverse. It sure does not help this seem like any less of a vanity project. March 22, 2020 at 5:18 pm in reply to: Bobby & Doug Q&A #258200 HamishParticipant I would rather have Rob novels and Doug specials to be honest. March 18, 2020 at 8:32 pm in reply to: Red Dwarf Cinematic Trilogy #258106 HamishParticipant > I definitely think that specials are the way to go forward from now on. Were the last few seasons needed to get there or could Doug have just gone with specials since 2009 do you think though? March 14, 2020 at 12:37 am in reply to: Unanswered Questions #258043 HamishParticipant Where do babies even come from? March 3, 2020 at 10:48 pm in reply to: How much of Red Dwarf consciously targets Americans? #257978 HamishParticipant Mexicans would still call Katydid and RealBigOleDummy Estadounidense rather than American though, while Brazilians would use Americano/a. French Canadians might use Etats-Uniens rather than American as well. So it is more about language than politics. March 3, 2020 at 10:39 pm in reply to: How much of Red Dwarf consciously targets Americans? #257977 HamishParticipant In the case of Canada and Mexico we are just happy for any excuse not get lumped in with you lot. March 3, 2020 at 10:29 pm in reply to: How much of Red Dwarf consciously targets Americans? #257976 HamishParticipant > It’s not like any of the other countries on this continent are fighting for the title. North America no. Central and South America yes. Latin Americans consider themselves exactly that. Americans. Though we could just as easily have ended up referring to everyone in the United States as Columbians so there you go. History is weird. February 27, 2020 at 4:02 am in reply to: Doctor Who – Series 12 #257827 HamishParticipant February 25, 2020 at 4:06 am in reply to: Unanswered Questions #257799 HamishParticipant I assume Holly gave him an orientation before hand. February 20, 2020 at 9:42 pm in reply to: real world cultural references in the series #257742 HamishParticipant All I can say is that here in Canada we have Coffee Crisps and you lot are missing out. February 18, 2020 at 6:45 pm in reply to: Doctor Who – Series 12 #257721 HamishParticipant This *is* fun! Are you mad? February 12, 2020 at 7:35 pm in reply to: M-Corp on Wikipedia #257619 HamishParticipant > What the hell is that asshole’s problem, I bust my ass making these and some cunt just gallops in and slaps a tag demeaning it. Honestly. Yep, that is what editing Wikipedia is like alright. February 3, 2020 at 2:02 am in reply to: CBS Red Dwarf reboot rumour #257457 HamishParticipant >Random unsourced anonymous 4chan post Jawscvmcdia? January 29, 2020 at 4:44 pm in reply to: Stereo Shenanagins #257416 HamishParticipant > Well, we’ve found John’s replacement already. He wishes. January 29, 2020 at 2:24 am in reply to: Avenue 5 – Armando Iannucci 'space comedy' gets greenlit at HBO #257409 HamishParticipant About not being interested in Red Dwarf? January 19, 2020 at 3:17 am in reply to: Star Trek Crap #257131 HamishParticipant It is the direction that lets Nemesis down. The plot by and large is serviceable. I remember as a kid listening to an audio book of the novelization of Nemesis, and it really is unreal how much better some of the line readings were in that when compared to the film. A massive missed opportunity. January 17, 2020 at 8:57 pm in reply to: good or near-perfect line readings? #257104 HamishParticipant Good or near-perfect cast naming. January 11, 2020 at 11:48 pm in reply to: good or near-perfect line readings? #256998 HamishParticipant Not a joke, but I always like how Craig says “stacked to the gills” in Rimmerworld. December 8, 2019 at 11:35 pm in reply to: Star Trek Crap #256597 HamishParticipant Babylon 5 curse suddenly comes for DS9. December 3, 2019 at 7:46 pm in reply to: Would You Rather #256465 HamishParticipant So that would still be a yes from you then? November 21, 2019 at 6:26 pm in reply to: New Sonic Trailer #256179 HamishParticipant > News on the Red Dwarf Special can’t come quick enough. And then a cast member gets sick. I guess this thread is contagious.
