What I mean is, he doesn't say `He'.  He's listing off things using
subjectless sentences.  "Has to take up petty crime ... ."

Well, I think about it, and find that this is really the only subjectless
sentence.  Really, as far as we know, `he' was in the script, but just
not spoken by Chris Barrie.  If we're transcribing what is actually said,
however, remove the `he'.

Since when has the BBC gotten everything right?  *Before* having read the lines
in the alt.tv.red-dwarf FAQ, I was sure that it was "goldfish shoals, nibbling
at my toes".  It fits the meter better; otherwise, the stress on the last
syllable in "goldfishes" it out of proportion.

I'm not really sure why this seems so important, though.  :)

Since no-one seems to have come up with the correct answer yet...
In "Confidence & Paranoia", Holly works out that if they shut down Red
Dwarf's superfluous heating and lighting stuff, they can run a second
hologram. Lister finds what he thinks is Kochanski's hologram disc, but
it turns out to be Rimmer's.

Rimmer: Did you really think I'd put Kochanski's disc in Kochanski's box

I know that a while ago someone posted the interview Craig Charles did

I have a question.  How can both Rimmer and Holly be active whenever the 
guys go travelling through time?

In Stasis Leak (series II), Lister "takes" Holly along in his watch.  
Surly when he traveled through the leak, the "local" Holly would take 
over?

In the same eposide, how can Rimmer "live"?  At that time, someone else 
would be being generated by HoloSim Unit..

Also, in Backwards (Series III), how can Rimmer be there (and how can 
Holly (Hilly) come along (in Kryten), if they have travelled through a 
TimeHole??

hehe.  I love picking holes in films/TV programs.

Maid Marion and her Merry Men is a British comedy series for kids written

Yes,  I saw Maid Marion on New Zealand TV a few months ago.

I thought it was generally pretty boring even though it had Cat and

Came to the conclusion that it isn't worth programming a video for let alone
actually making time to watch it.

After reading all the arguments on the net about Holoship (S5 E1), I promised

Binks:	Binks to Enlightenment, have arrived on the derelict.  Confirm initial	
speculation, there is absolutely nothing of any value or interest here.  It's one of the old class II ship-to-surfs one of the old class II ship-to surface vessels, the very model in fact that 
was withdrawn due to major flight design flaws.  Crew, three.  One series
4000 mechanoid, almost burnt-out give maybe three years.  Ah, Felis-Sapiens,
bred from the domestic house cat and about half as smart.  Uh, no value in
future study of this species.  What have we here?  A human being, or a very
close approximation!  Chronological age, mid 20's, physical age, 47.
Grossly overweight, unnecessarily ugly, otherwise would recommend it for the
museum, apart from that of no value or interest.

Lister:  Lister to Red Dwarf, we have in our midst a complete smeg-pot!
Brains in the anal region, chin absent presumed missing, geitalia small and
inoffensive, of no value or interest.

Binks:  Binks to Enlightenment, evidence of primitive humor!  The human has
knowledge of irony, satire and imitation.  With patient tuition could maybe
master simple tasks.

Lister:  Lister to Red Dwarf, displays evidence of spoiling for a rumble!
Seems unable to grasp simple threats!  With careful pummelling, could,
possibly be sucking tomorrows lunch through a straw!

Binks:  Binks to Enlightenment, the human is under the delusion that he is
somehow able to bestow physical violence to a hologram.

Lister:  Lister to Red Dwarf, the intruder seems blissfully unaware that we
have a rather sturdy holo-whip in the munitions cabinet, and unless he wants
his derriere minced like burger-meat, he'd better be history in two seconds
flat!!

Binks:  Binks to Enlightenment, recon mission complete, transmit, with speed!
Enlightenment, quickly please!

Why should it bother you so much?  If they turned out to be gay, what's
the difference.  You love them for who they are, not for their sexual
orientation (which by the way is the correct term, not preference.
Gays to *prefer* to be gay, they don't choose it, they are born that
way, ergo, orientation).  How would you feel about it?  I don't know
either?  What would you do if your best friend/brother/sister told
you that he/she was gay?  Would you disown them?  Would you disown
Stimpy?

Believe it.  I have taped the little two minute segment Entertainment
Tonight did with John K. about 6 or so months ago.  When I frezzed
framed it this past weekend, I could see what story boards they were
working on at the time of the interview.  They were clearly working on
`In the Army' and `Rubber Nipple Salesmem'.  So John K. was involved
with these episodes.

Also, there's a scene in the segment where they show an artist
coloring in a cell. It shows Stimpy in his cadet uniform with Ren.  Is
there another Commander Hoek episode coming up?  Or were they just
doing this shot for the ET people?  Finally, they showed someone
drawing some frames for an as yet unbroadcast episode. There's some
other dog(?)  stretching open ren's mouth and then puking in it
(possibly one of the George Liquor episodes?).  Gee, I can see why
Nick may have some problems with John K.

The credits for Sven Hoek showed the change in management for R&S.
John K.'s name has been removed from the producing credits. And while
there's mention of Spumco in the closing credits, the runny nose kid
logo at the end is now missing.  Also there's mention of Metrocell
(I think that's right) in the credits.  I don't recall this in any
of the other new episodes.

The reference is actually fairly minor, but amusing.  It's in the
discussion of the "talk" command, and they use the example of
Stimpy@cat.nick.org wanting to chat with Ren@chihuahua.edu.  When the
connection is set up, Ren's initial question is "What is it, man?", and
Stimpy's message is "Joy, Joy, Joy."

It's hard to get the voices over text-only windows....
