"This plot is amazing. It's more of a comedy-drama than a sitcom.
"On Lister's part it's much more emotional. He cries his eyes out in this. I think it's going to surprise a lot of people, the emotional maturity of the piece."
Hmm . . .
Hmm indeed. Please don't let it be bollocks.
I sincerely hope it isn't bollocks. I'm looking forward to the Dwarf far more than the Doctor Who spesh.

Like I've said before, it really doesn't even have to be great to make me happy; good will be enough! Just as long as it's not cack!

Please let it be half decent. That'll do me.
I'm still worried. Hope springs eternal, but I've got a terrible feeling in the pit of my stomach.

You're not kidding!
So far there have been 3 reasons in the press why there is no Holly in these programmes that are being shown over Easter on the Dave channel. 1 No budget 2 Didn't want the crew dragging a computer around with them on earth 3 A water leak caused a short circuit and caused the computer to break down.
This gives you an idea of what the people who make Red Dwarf (GrantNaylor) are like and you will be able to read all about them and the cast in my auto biography which I am working on as I speak. I watched Chris, Robert and Danny on BBC Breakfast News this morning. Talk about laughs take a holiday.
I will be watching the shows but I really don't see how it will be any good because it's not shot in front of a studio audience and they're not trapped on board Red Dwarf which was it's main strength when it was character comedy.
Everything is done by one man (Naylor) and he can't do everything well. Bring back Grant and get a good director (Bye) and it might have stood a chance. And Holly with some good gags of course.
Not one of the cast have got in touch with me which just shows how self centred they are. I'm not bitter just unhappy about the way I have been treated by them. By the way GrantNaylor you still owe me money for the Red Dwarf movie rehearsals.
Happy Easter everyone, Norman
eep!
Oh dear.
Here is the first five minutes:

It doesn't seem right. Needs a studio audience, the acting seems really wooden.

Oh for FUCK'S SAKE!!!!!!!
WHERE is the FUCKING audience???
God damn it, if there was ever a comedy that was made for a studio audience it was Red Dwarf. Holy shit this is making me angry and I'm only two minutes in. Red Dwarf was one of the f**king reasons I got into comedy writing in the first place.
Excuse me, I need to chill and watch the rest.

Agreed. That was bad.
Charles didn't seem to be in character through some of his lines imo. Lazy.
Rimmer and Lister aren't the same. He's more Lloyd from Corrie than Lister!

I thought that too.
