Oh, I thought Ronnie Barker being in it story some how evolved from the story about Craig Charles farting infront of him in an elevator.

[JamesTC]

I think it might be DVD sales which will really decide if the specials do well. Without even being filmed yet they are doing quite well, they have already been sold to twenty odd countries.

[JamesTC]

I am a little sad, she was funny *ducks as shoe is thrown*. Well atleast Robert thinks the scripts are great. If it is set on Star Bug I will be happy, can’t get enough of it, who ever desiged it is a genius.

[JamesTC]

I did actually start typing something, something along the lines of “I like me”.

[JamesTC]

*types smart are comment*

*realises*

*deletes smart arse comment*

Hmm…

[JamesTC]

Backyard Blitz?
Band of Brothers?
Basil Brush?
Battle B-Daman?
Bill and Ben?
Bob the Builder?
The Brady Brides?
The Brady Bunch?
Brady’s Beasts?
Break the Bank?
Breaking Bonaduce?

Everybody loves wikipedia.

I think Titan seems the best option, this site being “Ganymede & Titan” you would think they would let us decide!

> I hate the way London and Londoners are portrayed onscreen for the masses. I often wonder (well OK, not that often) if New Yorkers feel the same way about how they?re shown on film.

I hate the way people around the world thinks all of England talks cockney. Nearly all films which show an English person show them as a cockney, I don’t get it, I guess the North doesn’t exist. Its when a country is seen as whole just by the main city, not right!

[JamesTC]

Bobby is filming one with Jo Brand today.

[JamesTC]

I think he is doing Carry on London soon.

[JamesTC]

Despite the fact I hate religeon this guy has a pretty good speech.

[JamesTC]

His rhyming colours is brilliant!

[JamesTC]

“Praise song for every hand lettered signed”, was that the line? What the fuck does it mean?

[JamesTC]

Don’t think much of this poem, was never much of a poem fan though.

[JamesTC]

*applause*

[JamesTC]

A pause gives time for what he said to sink in, it is not meant for applause.

[JamesTC]

“The people will judge you on what you can build and not what you can destroy”
Brilliant!

[JamesTC]

Sparkle, sparkle!

[JamesTC]

>Although he?s NEVER going to forget fucking up his oath.

I think you can let him off, I know if I had a speech to come I would just try to remember that!

[JamesTC]

>NEWSFLASH: Obama will not get pneumonia

I thought that was funny too, “that won’t happen here”, like we were all at home worrying Obama would catch pneumonia and die in a month.

[JamesTC]

> cf. there have been 10 Doctors, but only nine regenerations.

*Image of Bush regenerating into Obama*

44 right there.

[JamesTC]

Bring on Mr 44. I don’t care about this “God” fella.

[JamesTC]

Woodrow Wilson, my favourite president got a mention, hurray!

[JamesTC]

The crowds are magnificent, I did not expect that many people to be there!

[JamesTC]

Well he is 80 isn’t he?

[JamesTC]

Obama is going to assassinate himself!

[JamesTC]

Watching it live on BBC.co.uk

[JamesTC]

Poetic licence.

[JamesTC]

then how does kennedy kill his past self .. because if he does that it means he cant become his future self to kill himself in the past .. so really nobody is there to kill kennedy ?? me confused

It could be that with the future Star Buggers being the original future selves their time line as well as themselves can be changed because they exist as originals, Kennedy was a different version of himself not from the original time line so he could kill himself because essentially he was a different man because he was not meant to exist. Ouch, its like brain freeze only much worse.

The Grandfather Paradox means that the entirety of reality should have been wiped out at the conclusion of Out of Time. And if not then, then at the conclusion of Tikka, when the same thing happens.

Ergo, everything that happens from VII onwards can safely be ignored, as that universe doesn?t actually exist, and any episodes you may encounter from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination.

“The Grandfather Paradox is this: suppose a man traveled back in time and killed his biological grandfather before the latter met the traveller’s grandmother. As a result, one of the traveller’s parents (and by extension, the traveller himself) would never have been conceived. This would imply that he could not have travelled back in time after all, which in turn implies the grandfather would still be alive, and the traveller would have been conceived, allowing him to travel back in time and kill his grandfather. Thus each possibility seems to imply its own negation, a type of logical paradox.”

Though not mentioning the universe is destroyed in that piece from good ol’ wikipedia, one of many outcomes can be established by the logical paradox that is formed, the outcome Red Dwarf establishes is that the events occured to the man but not to the grandfather and events were turned back (not without repercussions, unstable dimension in RD) so that the man can then avoid his error and stop the logical paradox.

[JamesTC]

DT was described in the Metro today as ?former Doctor Who David Tennant?. Sigh.

Bloody ‘ell, its the year 2010, I better rush out and get the Red Dwarf specials on DVD, I have been in a coma since january 2009!

[JamesTC]

‘The Sea Devils’ is wonderful, the best Pertwee story by far. ‘Warriors of the Deep’ is not as bad as is said but it is not a classic, the costume for Silurians and Sea Devils are great and well I won’t spoil it, Peter is good in it.

[JamesTC]

I mentioned Pete Part 2 because I consider it the worst episode or Red Dwarf, still find it much funnier than the USA pilot.

[JamesTC]

Don?t get me wrong, Red Dwarf USA is shit but its shitness is excusable given that its an attempt by a bunch of newcomers (sans Robert) to reinvent the show for a US audience. Pete Part 2 does not have a similar get-out-clause. It?s just as hurried, has equally bad characterisation and is far messier as a narrative.

It has the get out clause that it was originally a one part episode and a second episode had to be rushed, instead of a rushed episode it had a padded two parter.

And the Fire Exit joke is better than any line in Pete Part 2.

I agree with that but it only had that and another joke about base ball cards which I found funny.

[JamesTC]

Series VIII is miles better than the USA pilot, even the worst episode of Red Dwarf is alot better than the USA pilot, I’m looking at you Pete Part 2.

[JamesTC]

Me too, a triple disc set! Though I am most looking forward to the colourised ‘Planet of the Daleks’, I love all the restoration features and that has one about the colourisation!

[JamesTC]

They could write it on the camera lens and always place Rimmer in the same place, that way if the worst happens and the felt tip runs out Rimmer can still have a H but he can’t move without the camera moving the same way he does.

[JamesTC]

Just think, the new episodes could be cancelled if someone leaves the top off a pen.

[JamesTC]

No matter what happens these will be the shortest episodes but I still think these will be for a 40 minute slot as it will be inkeeping with the other episodes. Previous episodes have cuts (not just to incorporate adverts) so atleast these will be specialy made for Dave so it won’t be butchered on repeats though I will buy the DVD straight away so I won’t run on repeats, yet it is good for those who prefer to not buy DVDs and watch repeats.

[JamesTC]

>Though a crafty tenner or two wouldn?t go amiss.
That is over half the budget for the Dave specials!

[JamesTC]

I am calm! Was my post aggressive? If it was I apologise because it was not meant to be in that tone.

[JamesTC]

Who says Kochanski is not in the specials, personally I would love 2 episodes set on Star Bug with Rimmer, Cat, Kryten, Lister and Kochanski. A mix of the Series VI and VII. All they have said is only the four main cast are confimed, doesn’t mean others can’t be confirmed soon, we haven’t even got a director confirmed or a plot so just because 4 people are confirmed doesn’t mean more can’t come along.

[JamesTC]

I searched for an anagram of Red Dwarf and I got Dwarf Red, it has no anagrams.

[JamesTC]

Chris Barrie’s impression of Chris Barrie.

[JamesTC]

>David Ross? Star of awful sitcom The Green Green Grass?

I like the Green Green Grass but he also played Kryten and Talkie Toaster so a good Dwarf background.

[JamesTC]

>and he dislikes Red Dwarf.

Cunt!

[JamesTC]

>You know, before he released it again.

With less material I believe.

[JamesTC]

Well since a few months back we were told it was 20th this is not good in that sense though it is good to have confirmation. Rob has a Kryten outfit test next week so I think the main site will give a picture or two next friday, atleast I hope.

[JamesTC]

I see his name mentioned and have seen an article on here calling him a cunt, who is he?
