season 7 always annoyed me because of this one fact Since it was established that the future thems could not destroy their past selves because that would make the future thems not exist and then them knowing what to do to avoid becoming the future thems then there was no future thems so no deaths Yet future JKF was able to shoot past JFK
Doug Naylor mentioned that Series 5 was when it was at its worst with Chris and Craig, barely speaking to each other during recordings. Frosty to the point of being as cold as an ice berg. Craig tended to speak with Danny more and Chris spoke to Robert or Hatty more, so both men could avoid each other.
I have read about the bad relationship between Chris Barrie & Craig Charles in those years of Season 3 to 5. The two of them simply didn't get on. Chris saw Craig as being too laid back, too relaxed & Craig thought Chris was pompous, a bit up his own arse because he had more TV experience.
46:32 - and Robert saw this anti science in 2020 and 2021 with Covid and the vaccines, just how anti science so many people can be. Armchair doctors who think they know better than men and women who have trained for decades in medicine and science.
The fact that they had to hide Dona's face when playing Kochanski is actually genius because it makes kochanski feel even more distanced from Lister. Not only is she with him in another life, the real Lister doesn't even properly get to see her face.
I always loved Holly, he was my favourite character, now, after watching these documentaries, i have gone right off him, he seems like a proper bellend. Sulking and refusing to work because his ball was taken from him, complaining about the smell of the chemicals in the jam, refusing to let Hattie Hayridge kiss lipstick marks onto his face. Im glad they sacked him!
I can't bloody stand him! In the series 1 documentary, the actor for Todhunter bet on a horse called Holly and gave norman the ticket - the twat was entirely ungrateful because the horse didn't win! Hattie Hayridge supremacy, not only does she seem so lovely as a person but her performance is leagues ahead of norman.
Due to political correctness, Red Dwarf is now Scarlet Little Person. Haha. No, but seriously, what a great series, and Back to Earth was brilliant. VERY Blade Runner, I loved it. "They want more life". Anyone here played the Blade Runner game...???
Budgets have changed since the 1990s, the cost of producing television has skyrocketed in the 2010s and 2020s. They simply can't pour in the multi millions, the only way that can happen is if they teamed up with a streamer like Netflix.
