i grew up watching Red Dwarf with my Dad, i've had to have seen all the series at least four times...always loved Rimmer. RimmerWorld is one of my favorites. was rather shocked to find out the other day that when the series was casting that Alan Rickman auditioned for the part of Rimmer. Dad said the show would have been cancelled after a few episodes. I love Alan Rickman...but there's only one SmeeeegHeeeed technician third class. Gazpacho soup anyone?
Well there is only one more thing more annoying then Arnold Rimmer in Red dwarf, and that was the toaster. "do you want some toast? ah you are a waffleman I see".;o)
Absolutely smeg-a-doodle-doo-ski... curry, chips and a lager fantastic... I love Red Dwarf... hee hee... Kryton is my favourite but Rimmer is a close 2nd place... :0)x
Awesome! You get the impression though that the writers are stuck with words that rhyme with Rimmer e.g. more reliable than a garden strimmer! Still a masterpiece though...
They don't necessarily need a choir. They could have gotten Chris to do the backing and then overdubbed it several times to make it sound like there were multiple backup singers.

I accidentally installed a plugin that spews the lyrics from this on Pidgin and had to ALT F4 it so it would stop.
