The Ronnie and Nancy Show News Posted by John Hoare on 3rd March 2007, 11:58 Now, I knew about the various shows the Spitting Image team did for America.

Always wanted to know what Rob Grant’s favourite cover version is? News Posted by Jonathan Capps on 25th January 2007, 14:58 Well, now you know! The clip is taken from a brief trailer for a new 6Music show, counting down YOUR top 40 favourite covers. Great. Although, the fact he recorded such a short piece suggests to me that he's actually been in to the 6Music studios for an interview recently, and we've gone and missed it.

Fat Reviews Posted by Seb Patrick on 8th January 2007, 21:10 Look, everyone! Rob Grant's Fat! Alright, that's the last time we'll use that joke, we promise.

Ever since the start of the Red Dwarf DVD releases, we - and loads of other fans - have been asking... well, where the fuck he was, frankly. When V and VI were released, we all thought we'd missed our chance. And here he is - talking about the genesis of the series. It's more than I could have ever hoped for. Jesus, if anyone is wondering whether they still want this release, then here's your answer. Read more →
