I don't understand how Jane Horrocks looks absolutely stunning in this episode.. maybe I'm jsut used to her as bubbles.. but she needs to have her hair like this all the time!
I loved Jane Horrocks in this. I liked her in the early episodes of AbFab, but as the seasons went by her character "Bubbles" went from being cute to just stupid and slapstick.
"You make love like a Japanese meal... small portions but so many courses." I always thought it was "Japanese mule" before now. "Meal" makes a lot more sense.
A shame Jane Horrocks was not considered or offered to be Rimmer's replacement in Series 7. I could imagine in Series 7, Nirvana would be forced to abandon the Holoship when something terrible occurs to the Holoship along with it's crew and Nirvana starts a new life aboard Starbug.
One thing I've never quite understood about this episode is why the Holoship captured Rimmer in the first place if they already had a full crew on board.
What is it with spaceships having American captains on this show? Here we have Captain Hercule Platini of the holoship (even though his actor Matthew Marsh is actually British) and Red Dwarf's Captain Frank Hollister. Kind of wish these two could've met lol
