It is! It’s a trailer! News Posted by Ian Symes on 25th March 2009, 18:50 Remember when we used to get Red Dwarf news only once a week, and even then it was only semi-exciting most of the time? Well, today's daily update on spacecorpsdirective98247.co.uk is a bloody great trailer. Click the link, enter your code, and go to the third item on the Ship's Log. Read more →
Chris Barrie on Carbug News Posted by Jonathan Capps on 25th March 2009, 12:27 Excellent. You'd think after the SURPRISE early week rush of brilliant things, that Dave might be giving the traditional Wednesday update a miss... well, not so. The frankly stunning publicity campaign continues with a lovely little video of Jeremy 'Chris Barrie' Clarkson and Carbug... Read more →
Two new piccies! News Posted by Ian Symes on 18th March 2009, 12:55 Ah, Wednesday. Time for a Dave update. Providing you can find it, that is - when today's article first went live, it wasn't linked to on the Red Dwarf news index or the RSS feed, just on the front page of the main Dave site. This is both annoying and very silly - they seriously need a proper CMS. We even had to enlist the help of Si Bromley, for fuck's sake. Anyway, this week: two new pictures! Read more →
Synoptic Enhancer News Posted by Ian Symes on 11th March 2009, 12:39 In possible the most exciting move in the history of everything ever, Dave have revealed the episode synopses for Back To Earth. Oh, and in case that wasn't enough, they've just thrown in a shot of A COMPLETELY NEW BUNKROOM for good measure. If you're sensitive to spoilers, don't click on this link, and don't read this article or the comments. My personal policy is that things that are put out there by the production team and/or the channel don't count as spoilers, as they're things that we're supposed to know at this stage. Nevertheless, it's pretty mind-blowing stuff... I'd settle down with a cup of tea if I were you - this is one of the longest news stories G&T have ever done... Read more →
PHOTO! PHOTO! News Posted by Ian Symes on 25th February 2009, 12:09 Five new photos, there. They're all bloody lovely obviously, but it would take a special kind of borderline-autistic obsession to dissect the contents of each picture in turn, in an unnecessarily large amount of detail. You've come to the right place. Read more →
DVD out on June 15th! News Posted by Ian Symes on 20th February 2009, 12:03 A show insider has emailed us to reveal the following exclusive news: the Back To Earth DVD will be released on June 15th - a mere two months after the last episode is broadcast. There are no details as to extras so far, other than the promise that there will be "in-depth bonus material guaranteed to inform and entertain", much like the regular series releases. Excellent.

Big Suze! Big Suze is here! News Posted by Ian Symes on 18th February 2009, 05:57 Well well well, Sophie Winkleman - best known for her role as Big Suze on Peep Show - has been cast in Back To Earth. No news yet on what sort of character she's playing, other than that it is a "key role". I'm sure the rumourmongers will all spunk themselves at the thought that she's playing Kochanski, but I don't think that's terribly likely. We know bugger all else at this stage, other than that she's been on set since the shoot started on Monday. Marvellous. Read more →
New Pictures From The Street News Posted by Ian Symes on 11th February 2009, 02:14 Obviously the Dave news update wont be live until 12pm on Wednesday, but as we can't absolutely guarantee any of us will be around in time to post up our usual placeholder (and, handily, the person responsible for updating the RSS feed is just a little too eager) we have the link here ready for you to F5 the shit out of in the vain hope they'll publish a little early. See you later. EDIT: Ooh, it's updated, I knew it would. Read more →
No-rman Lovett News Posted by Ian Symes on 12th January 2009, 20:34 Norman Lovett will not be appearing in the new Dwarf specials. At the delightful time of 6:06pm, he posted the following bulletin on to his MySpace page: Read more →
Whose Dwarf Is It Anyway? News Posted by Ian Symes on 11th January 2009, 13:46 Well, this is interesting. The February edition of SFX carries the following small news item: Craig Charles has divulged more about Dave’s Red Dwarf revival. “We are going to do Red Dwarf: Unplugged, which is just the four of us - and some chairs - trying to improvise, or rather trying to remember, classic scenes,” he said at the recent Collectormania Glasgow.
