[RightWingRiot]

[Sillygoose14111]

[AtheistInsight]

Wow. Talk about a long lasting light bulb.

[thatsmrlistersir]

C'mon Beeb, even I have higher quality recordings of this on VHS.

April Fool :>|

[MaagicAndTechnology]

Lister: One, Hunderd and Eighty billion pounds? :O Your kidding.

Holly: April Fool.

LMFAO!

[RADicious]

ive always wondered: if holly can choose from any face, why cant he have a body as well? he has projected himself with books, glasses, ties, made himself a girl, etc.

[ZILOGz80VIDEOS]

I liked it before holly was a girl.

[shadowjazzy]

That's fantastic.

[ItsTurningGreen002]

[McPrfctday]

[Burningmace]

April Fools :D

[Lampantetre]

LOL !!!

[ThePutasfever]

remember this one?

"We are talking jape of the decade. We are talking April, May, June, July and August fool. That's right. I am Queeg."

That's right, suckers.

[Simon0]

@ThePutasfever yeah that was a good one.

[EmmaJaneMurdock]

This show is basically about about a bunch of mentally unstable misfits alone in space with absolutely nothing to do. Brilliant idea for a show.

[SirFair1]

@redwarf123 Personally i think this would be tied #1 with the shoes have soles part in another episode

[degen83]

@SirFair1 that was a great joke too. Especially because Rimmer didn't get it ..."Wait a minute, how could the shoes have opened the car door?" lol, hilarious, i love this series :)

[AFMountaineer2000]

I heard that they are making another seires, anyone know if this is true

[johna456]

@AFMountaineer2000

They are making 2 new series for the uk digital channel Dave

[DotDramiel]

@johna456 Have you got a link to an official website? Or is it just rumours? Last I heard Craig was in no way interested, which is why they never made the Red Dwarf Movie....

[johna456]

@DotDramiel

Craig has always been interested, it was the fact that they couldn't get the funding for the film, Look up on the offical red dwarf website it will tell you.

From what i here and have read they is going to be at least one new series of 6 episodes to begin production early next year, Nothing has been offically confirmed, but craig charles let slip on his radio show a couple of months ago,

[bluejeckett]

@johna456 Unfortunately Doug Naylor has a bad habit of starting plot arcs he never finishes so Red Dwarf becomes a collage of plotlines that just get abandomned which has always been shabby, we still have no explanation why and where Kochanski died or how they got out of the series 8 finale, and the one off special they made was fairly poor, Alas Red Dwarf has long had its day.

[johna456]

@bluejeckett Well i suppose everyone is entitled to there own opinion. Ive watched Red Dwarf from the start in1988 and love the program good or bad, yes there have been some " shabby" episodes but i wouldn't change it for nothing. and the recent back to earth episodes where ok i could name a few episodes that are a lot worse. Can't wait for the new series next year.

[bluejeckett]

@johna456 Oh yeah Im a big Red Dwarf fan and no mistake, I have all 8 series on DVD but I think Doug and Grant never took proper care of thier baby and considering they had such a great baby I was disappointed at alot of thier handling of the affair, I mean Grant was a tosser anyway for just walking out on it but I hoped Doug would at least tie the loose ends up but instedn he goes onto make more plot arcs that now need tieing up, I wouldve thought as a proffesional scriptwriter u finish one....

[bluejeckett]

@johna456 ....plot before u start another, doing endless cliffhangers that dont get resolved properly is just biting off more than u can chew and not honouring the fans who've stood by the show despite it's labelling as niche or cult and to be ignored.

I am interested to hear you've said there'll be a new series though, I saw the one off special and assumed it didnt get great ratings cos I never heard anyting more after it, I think tieing in Craig's soapie career in with Red Dwarf was a.....

[bluejeckett]

@johna456 ....litle too close to breaking the 4th wal really, wasnt big on that aspect, in the age of constant rehashes I'd even like to see a reboot with new actors as much as I like the old ones but Im sure there'd be uproar if that happened, we'll certainly never see the likes of Chris Barrie and Craig Charles again but I'm sure they could get approximates. Cos lets face it the current guys are getting on and Im not a believer in watching actors slowly age series after series

[jacksawild]

@johna456 New Series? What? If this is an April Fool joke I will stab you with a banjo.

[GGGriggs]

@jacksawild Actually, the BBC are considering making new series of Red Dwarf.

:-D

[ben6993]

(From wikipedia) Craig Charles confirmed that two new series were being produced, and that filming begins in November 2011. On 21 January 2011 it was confirmed that a new series will be filmed in late 2011 to be broadcast in 2012 on the digital channel Dave. However, UKTV, owners of Dave, have said that it has not been officially greenlit. Doug Naylor confirmed to fans that a new series of Red Dwarf would be aired on Dave in late 2012, with filming taking place in late 2011 and early 2012

[if5tatement]

@GGGriggs It's Dave, not the BBC.

[GGGriggs]

@if5tatement Oops, my mistake.

:-)

Dave is probably than BBC nowadays anyway.

[krendoshazin]

@if5tatement Dave is owned by UKTV, and UKTV is a joint venture between BBC Worldwide and Scripps Networks Interactive. By proxy the BBC still run the show.

[weedbix]

I wish I could go back and watch this + Queeg again for the first time.

[NuguSmedley]

@weedbix

Yeah, it was so awesome the very first time wasn't it? :)

(they don't make em like this anymore..)

[bluejeckett]

@weedbix Yeah it was definitely a favourite of mine, they were good at the twists u didnt see coming, I genuinely felt sad enough to be fooled into thinking Holly had got the boot for good and was so relieved when it all turned out to be bullshit lol so wierd but the first time was definitely the best

[daviesc322]

At the start I can't help but think of robot wars haha

[WarDaft]

At 1% per year...

£17.50 becomes £2.314*10^12965

That is, the amount of money he would have after 3 million years of 1% annually has nearly 13 thousand *digits*

[Midgetmuffdiver]

tis a bloody disgrace that the Beeb couldn't fund a movie yet they ran with that Hyperdrive $hite!! Smegheads.

[NuguSmedley]

@Midgetmuffdiver

Schmeeee Heeeeeeds

[retteretter]

Wow £60,000 a year for 1 lightbulb in the bathroom.... We're doomed to inflation!!

[MugoUrth]

Just the video I wanted to watch for the holiday.

[Biscom]

£180 billion pounds!!!!!! HOW THE SMEG IS HE GOING TO PAY FOR THAT? Answer...Rimmer can pay for it. Ha Ha Ha ha

[WackdProductions]

@Biscom He owns 98% of the world's wealth. I doubt paying off £180,000,000,000 is anything more than a drop in a bucket.

[Rikairiify]

Loved Holly's little giggle!

[georgeowain]

His Queeg pramk was better. Never saw that coming.

[Golkarian]

@georgeowain Queeg is awesome

[SophisticatedLunatic]

@georgeowain I know! I was practically crying when I thought Holly was gone, and then.... "Aaaahh".... :D

[weedbix]

I fucking lol'd so hard the first time I saw this. And the second because I'd forgotten...

[roberthisanoobagain]

wot episode is dis, i canna remember

[dc8r17]

Me2 (2 = squared)

[JackTheGeordieLad]

he's ryt u cnt w8 6months with a jape like that up ur sleeve :P

[jayvader123]

Holly: April fool

LOL he almost gave lister a heart attack with that one.

[rabthe45bravo]

Just watch the bloody ad, EvilCensor. :) It won't kill you. If you're worried about human rights, donate some money to Amnesty International.

[thesman32]

(EvilCensor) you dont have to pay for a TV license you choose to own a tv

oh and by the way you dont pay a license for just the bbc channels

the set up now is if you receve a tv signal from anywhere in the world you have to pay a license

pish aint it

[EvilCensor]

I apologize, I did not realize that could not grasp the subtleties of the English language.. I believe I said "Does *every* other video have.." - at no point did I say no other video has adverts.

I will try and make things clearer in future.

It would seem advertising is an opt-in procedure.. and what with certain music videos having been blocked to UK viewers - the technology is surely in place to not show people in the UK adverts for which they pay a unfair license fee to avoid?

[jammin1975]

Whats with the bloody adverts??

[EvilCensor]

Precisely!

Why is there an advert on this.. aren't we ripped off enough by having to pay for a TV license as it is?

[darmilinoma]

Maybe because Youtube isn't a British television station?

[EvilCensor]

Does every other video have adverts like this?

No, therefore that's not a valid argument.

[justin6378]

bbc worldwide is the commercial arm of the bbc so they are allowed to use adverts

but by law this part can't be more than about 22% of the company in order to remain a public service and charge for licences.

[lornaration]

are you american... if you r i should hope there are adverts... British taxes made this program... so dont complain about not being a freeloader!

[habbo3hampster]

craig charles is amazing i met him at the london expo yesturday and i still cant believe i met him

[Beau1618]
