Red Dwarf episode guide to Season 5


From: B.J.Williams@newcastle.ac.uk (Barry Williams)

Subject: Episode Guide

*** Red Dwarf episode guide ***

Started by: Eric Reuter
Updated and Corrected by: Barry Williams

Debut: A British series following the strange adventures of Dave Lister,
the lone survivor of a disaster in outer space that wipes out his ship's
crew.

%-----------------------------------------------------------------

This is an S.O.S. distress call from the mining ship Red Dwarf. The
crew are dead, killed by a radiation leak. The only survivours are:
Dave Lister, who was in suspended animation during the disaster, and his
pregnant cat, who was safely sealed in the hold. Revived three-million
years later, Lister's only companions are: a life form who evolved from
his cat, and Arnold Rimmer, a hologram simulation of one of the dead
crew.
-- Holly (opening speech)

* End credit song lyrics *

It's cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere,
I'm all alone, more or less.
Let me fly far away from here,
fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun.

I want to live shipwrecked and comatosed,
drinking fresh mango juice.
Goldfish shoals nibbling at my toes,
fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun,
fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun.

** RED DWARF III **

The crew of the Red Dwarf return for a brand new series. Twelve months
have passed. Lister has given birth to twin boys but was forced to
return them to their father. Kryten returns after...oh, just watch it.

Three million years in the future, Dave Lister, the last human being
alive, discovers he is pregnant after a liason with his female self in a
parallel universe. His pregnancy concludes with the successful delivery
of twin boys, Jim and Bexley. However, because the boys were conceived
in another universe, with different physical laws, they suffer from
highly accelorated growth rates and are both eighteen years old within
three days of being born. In order to save their lives, Lister returns
them to the universe of their origin, where they are reunited with their
father (a woman), and are able to lead comparatively normal lives. Well,
as normal as you can be if you've been born in a parallel universe and
your father's a woman and your mother's a man and you're eighteen years
old three days after your birth. Shortly afterwards, Kryten, the service
mechanoid, who had left the ship after being rescued from his own
crashed vessel, the Nova 5, is found in pieces after his space bike
crashed into an astroid. Lister rebuilds the 'roid, but is unable to
recapture his former personality. Meanwhile, Holly, the increasingly
erratic Red Dwarf computer, performs a head sex change operation on
himself. He bases his new face on Hilly, a female computer with whom
he'd once fallen madly in love.
