SCI-FI geeks are in for a treat — Red Dwarf is making a comeback.
The cult show’s cast are reuniting for a final hurrah to celebrate a decade since the series ended. Chris Barrie (Rimmer), Craig Charles (Lister), Danny John-Jules (Cat), Robert Llewelyn (Kryten) and Chloe Annett (Kochanski) have all agreed to take part. Bosses at digital channel Dave have ordered four 30-minute shows for next year, which will take viewers on a trip down memory lane. They will see the stars pull on their old costumes for some original sketches and also feature some of Red Dwarf’s best bits. An insider said: “Red Dwarf was one of the Britain’s most cherished shows, which while it seemed quite geeky, had a huge audience. “At its height eight million viewers tuned in so it feels only right that we should have a celebration. “All the major cast members have signed up — even those who have been in the news for the wrong reasons lately.” The Sun revealed how 47-year-old John-Jules — also a regular on children’s series The Story Makers — allegedly went berserk with a 16-inch knife after two dustmen refused to empty his bin at his London home. Charles, 44, has also courted controversy after being filmed smoking crack cocaine in the back of a taxi. Red Dwarf, which centred around the crew of a mining spaceship, ran for eight series on the BBC from 1988 before it was finally axed in 1999. The spoof sci-fi show made household names of Barrie and Charles — who now plays taxi driver Lloyd Mullaney in Coronation Street. |
