DwarfCast 99 – Emohawk: Polymorph II Commentary DwarfCasts Posted by Ian Symes on 2nd June 2019, 11:18 Subscribe to DwarfCasts: RSS • iTunes May 2019.

An ancient warning system is triggered, issuing a familiar call to arms. "Awooga", it cries, "this is a DwarfCast". And it bloody well is. It's only the third one since Series XII finished, and the first regular episode commentary that we've bothered to release since September 2017. We are back. Read more →
DwarfCast 89 – Stoke Me A Clipper Commentary DwarfCasts Posted by Ian Symes on 10th September 2017, 16:21 Subscribe to DwarfCasts: RSS • iTunes With just over a month until Red Dwarf XII debuts on Dave (and most likely just under a month until it debuts on UKTV Play), what the world needs right now is another discussion about Series VII.

Plus, we offer up a possible solution to a plot hole that's been bugging Cappsy for over twenty years. Read more →

Your intrepid team - Tanya Jones, Danny Stephenson, Ian Symes and TORDFC's Jo Sharples - tackle such topics as the nature of the JMC on-board computer, the best burial place for a shit episode, Alphonse Areola, and a potential spin-off series for Asso: Spanish Detective. Oh, and sexism. Let's see if this shitty little (mostly) boys' club can sort out that thorny problem once and for all. But before all that, a round-up of the latest Red Dwarf XI news, and all the details you need to get your hands of one of five pairs of tickets to Dave's exclusive fan screening of the first two episodes.
