Holly returning to Red Dwarf - Linkage YAAAAAAY!!!!!
Fri, 08 Sep 2017, 09:06
Jayenkai
Indeed!
https://www.ganymede.tv/2017/09/a-date-with-norman-lovett/

He actually let it slip about a week after filming, (which is nearly 2 years ago, now!!) and the Ganymede site admins ended up arguing as to whether or not that was "postable" to the frontpage, since it's very spoilerific.
Glad to know it's "unveiled" now!!

The promo photos also included Rimmer in a classic outfit, so I imagine these two pieces fit together..
But how?
Parallel Universe?
Alt Timelines?
Who knows...?

Well, this one's a biggie, there's no two ways about it. Eighteen years after his last appearance in the show, we're delighted to announce that Norman Lovett will be appearing as Holly in Red Dwarf XII when it premieres on Dave this October.
Erm... I'm pretty sure that isn't true. Didn't he appear in Back to Earth or somewhere around then?

Jayenkai
Nah, he was last in 8.
Back to Earth had an "out of order" sign on all the monitors.

Episode One appears on the UKTV Play app at some time tomorrow!
As with last year, the series will appear a week earlier on the App than on Dave, which isn't scheduled to start until next week.

First episode is now available via the UKTV Play app, but clicking the big Red Dwarf XII banner doesn’t start it. It starts series III.. you have to search for Red Dwarf, then dig through the series to find it..

Stupid bloody app, trying to get me to watch the wrong episode.
Pure evil...

Those new kryten glove are horrible.
And why the hell have they reversed Rimmer getting the rules wrong? He should be quoting the wrong rule number then being corrected, not the other way around.

They probably thought it'd be funny.

...Perhaps Lister was right and Rimmer was wrong.. But Rimmer was just adamant that he was right.?

I didn't enjoy this week's as much as last weeks, but in both cases it felt very much like a set piece for "other" characters, not the dwarfers.
Not sure I like that..

I thought last week was to predictable, it reminded me of one of the older ones, but I just can't put my finger on it.

The Waxworld episode?

I've just watched the first, and, mmmmmmmm... I didnt really enjoy it if I'm honest!

"MILF" got a chuckle out of me, but that was it, the rest... Just bland TV!

I'l watch the second, see what happens there, but, if I had a comment about the whole thing... They should've left it alone!

Awww shite, well then... Think I'll give the rest a miss in case it spoils my memories of the talking toaster!

Personally I think they should either have got back to earth or blown to bits at the end of Red Dwarf VII. Haven't seen any of it after "back to earth" but I found it had become such an effort to watch.

Hmmm..
Well, the series was a bit pants, compared to 10 and 11, IMO.
Episodes 5&6 were much better, but 2,3 and 4 really let the series down, for me.

6 was good, but felt like a string of setpieces. Still good, though.

I think Doug needs some fresh ideas, in future, though!

I do like that the episode was called "Skipper" though.
