Theres so much to work with and current fx could make it awesome and dingy. Almost a Blade Runner Comedy. Its just hit me how much i love s1 to 6 and the books and audiobooks (read by Chris Barrie obvs). Must have watched them dozens of times, except Queeg. Except Queeg?

Season 2 is easily the best, only really 3 comes close to it and even that one is slightly tarnished by a few episodes where the show is beginning to venture into silly territory, 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Papaya Dance Report post Posted October 21, 2019 What are folk's favourite lines from the Dwarf?

PK Report post Posted October 21, 2019 Lister and Rimmer's stories about their dads in Better Than Life are amazing. I think this might be the best scene from the whole programme Quote LISTER: I remember when my dad died you know. I was only six. I got loads of presents off everyone like it was Christmas. I remember wishing a couple more people would die so I could complete my Lego set. My grandma tried to explain, you know. She said he'd gone away and he wasn't coming back. So, I wanted to know where, like, you know. She said he was very happy and he'd gone to the same place as my goldfish. So I thought they'd flushed him down the bog. I thought he was just round the U bend, you know. I used to stuff food down, you know, and magazines and that for him to read. They took me to a child psychologist in the end because they found me with my head down the bowl reading him the football results. Quote RIMMER: He always wanted to join the Space Corps -- be an officer. But they wouldn't take him because he was an inch below regulation height. One inch. I had three brothers. When we were young he bought a traction machine so that he could stretch us. By the time my brother Frank was eleven he was six foot five. Every morning he'd measure us and if we hadn't grown, back on the rack. This line, and Craig Charles' delivery of it from Back To Reality are brilliant as well: Quote There are only three alternatives. It thinks we're either a threat, food, or a mate. It's gonna either kill us, eat us, or hump us. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fry Crayola Report post Posted October 21, 2019 Quote Sometimes, I think it's cruel giving machines a personality. My mate Petersen once bought a pair of shoes with Artificial Intelligence. 'Smart Shoes' they were called. It was a neat idea. No matter how blind drunk you were, they could always get you home. But he got rattled one night in Oslo and woke up the next morning in Burma. You see, his shoes got bored going from his local to his flat. They wanted to see the world, you know. He had a hell of a job getting rid of them. No matter who he sold them to, they'd show up again the next day. He tried to shut them out, but they just kicked the door down. The last thing I heard, they sort of... robbed a car and drove it into a canal. They couldn't steer, you see..Petersen was really, really blown away about it. He went to see a priest. The priest told him... he said it was alright and all that, when shoes are happy that they'd get into heaven. You see, it turns out shoes have soles. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thwomp Report post Posted October 21, 2019 Quote Holly : Nothing wrong with dog's milk. Full of goodness, full of vitamins, full of marrowbone jelly. Lasts longer than any other milk, dog's milk. Lister : Why? Holly : No bugger'll drink it. Plus of course the advantage of dog's milk is that when it goes off, it tastes exactly the same as when it's fresh. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
