I really enjoy watching Red Dwarf......I must admit though to being a bit dissapointed with the final series! laugh.gif

Who's your favourite character?!

The funniest character for me often has to be Kryten! Smeeeeeggggg.......!

You can remind yourself of the cast line up from the BBC's website. thumbup1.gif
Dax
has to be the cat

just so like a cat, vain, self centered, great!

so what if the ship is being blown up, is he going to look good when it does! laugh.gif
shadow
I have to say they were all good. I really liked the ship computers, I can't remember their names though. biggrin.gif
Dax
holly and holly!! laugh.gif
shadow
Even the blokes name was Holly? No wonder I blocked that out. rolleyes.gif
Eckie
Kryten was good but I think Rimmer was my man, he reminded me of somebody I knew, same personality and ways...... poor sod. I was disappointed with the last series too, in fact I think it went downhill when the writing team split.
Moog
I used to really like Craig Charles but now I have gone right off him since bumping into him in Manchester nite clubs years ago tongue.gif .

I think Holly's just brilliant - really annoying, but brilliant! Love her voice!

Ooh toss up between Holly & Kryten - tough one that...! blink.gif

oh Rimmer - eek, what a wuss!

Of course, how could I forget - there were two Hollys - Nah, just like the daft Hattie Hayridge thumbup1.gif

Craig Charles? Don't want to get into any trouble, but he didn't arf think he was Gods gift ...say no more ph34r.gif Poaching all the girls,, nicking pints etc.

This was just before he got into that bother with the police (''rape'' etc) .
Dana_Scully
Have to agree with Dax, Cat is the one for me smile.gif I loved the bit where he was going around the ship with an aerosol spray: Squirt "That's mine!", squirt "That's mine!" etc, such a typical cat laugh.gif

Ladies and gentlemen, cease your chatter.

The best character from red dwarf is, without a doubt, Toastie Toaster.

Regards,

The Master
Dax
a forgotton character was toastie,
never did see him in any roles after RD, the rumour was he had a drinking problem, and no-one would hire him again. sad.gif
The Master
A sad situation to be sure.

I understand his toastcentric personality irritated some of the other 'non-bread based' appliances, leading to his early withdrawal from the series.

Classic! I'd forgotten about him, nice one Dax. biggrin.gif

From crumpets to toast, to baguels (spelling?!)....... borg.gif

Sorry to disagree but Ace Rimmer is and remains the best character thumbup1.gif

Don't know if anyone remembers this, but Red Dwarf but was based on a series of sketches called Dave Hollins - Space Cadet that Rob Grant and Doug Naylor wrote for their Radio 4 series Son of Cliché. In the sketches, Chris Barrie played the ship's computer, but he was called HAB, not Holly. I've still got some of them on tape somewhere.

I remember being shown the script for the Red Dwarf pilot episode in the pub and Rob and Doug moaning that no-one was interested in making it! The people who turned it down must have been kicking themselves later on.

Now we've got the movie to look forward to...!
Jethro
Get out of town, an RD movie NO!!!!!! the w00t smilie isn't onboard ....
