@Knyghtmarez05 Timothy Spall is (i'm sure) a very clever university guy from 'The Midlands'. His 'Birmingham' accent is deliberately made to sound more 'common' by his thespian skillery. The accent is, by all acounts, 'Brummie' to use a coloquial term. I'm from the North West of 'The England', where we all speak the Queens English with impeccable grammer.
This was the first episode of Red Dwarf I ever watched, back in 1992, and it just blew me away! What a head-trip for both the characters & viewers alike!!
@TheEnemyIsIgnorance Heh, heh ^_^ My first episode was 'Legion' in towards the end of '93. Next week I was at home with a video ready to tape 'Gunmen of the Apocalypse'. Memories..
The "Despair Squid" episode..... first episode i ever saw , and i was sh*tfaced at the time ....... so many tears ..... stomach ache and more tears ........ comic genius........ RD at its peak in this series tho' me thinks.
this is my ABSOLUTELY FAVORITE episode of red dwarf!! i always ask people how they're feeling saying, "a bit wonky?" i love this show and this episode! thanks!
If I ever become rich I hope to buy the rights to this show and make a whole new series (keeping in mind the original spirit of the show). I hope it's done right because so many remakes or sequils suck. Maybe even invite original actors back to either play older versions of themselves or other characters.
I used to wish that I was Dave Lister and all the jerks, idiots, and bullies died and I was left on a ship the size of a city with my 4 pals Cat, Hollie, Kryten and even Rimmer (oh and Ace Rimmer too) LOL :)
I used to be a huge Red Dwarf fan back in the late 80's early 90's and I don't recall this episode. Is it posted in it's entirety someplace for me to see it?
Well I grew up in the States in Maine, the only station that would remotely play something like this would be our "MPBN" an affiliate to PBS. Now a days I have 700 stations but when I do a search for Red Dwarf I can't even find the reruns :( Anyway, I don't think that MPBN or as it was once called Maine-PBS didn't play the entire series.
its sad but i kno this series word by word! literely! lol i can open beer bottles wiv my over bite,,,how was we sposed to kno that you brummy git? ..l ol yes yes yes, nao nao nao..yes yes yes, NAO!!!!! lmao
Dude don't feel like its a bad thing to know the words, i think it just shows how much of a dedicated fan you are to it and thats a great thing as this is a truely great show to love.
when this series was shown i must have missed this episode, i didnt know that it even existed until the repeat showing, and i saw it as i was channel hopping! its one of my favourite episodes now. think... i may never have seen it!!!!! wow
Brilliant.....best lads sci-fi series ever.Dont make a film they never work the same.Just look at the last series, more expensive props and sets but non of the original magic.
What is the accent he is doing, like from where in England do people talk like that.?
"twonk" use it all the time.
