New series of Red Dwarf
A new series of six episodes has been ordered by the channel Dave following the "success" of Back To Earth. They are to be recorded before a studio audience.

Re: New series of Red Dwarf
Success?
I actually thought the last series was dire, even though I'm a massive fan.
It should be allowed to die gracefully imo

Re: New series of Red Dwarf
Great news. I love Red Dwarf and hope the new series is better than their Back To Earth special.

I think the lack of an audience was a real problem for the last one. Lets hope the audience on this one will be a huge help.
All the best

I just thought the Back to Earth wasn't that funny. The first part was ok but the next 2 parts were weak. Overall I was disappointed.

I think the chances of this being any good are about as remote as Lister developing a sudden interest in crochet.

I think the lack of any funny material was a real problem for the last one, having a load of drunk sci fi geeks laughing their head of at nothing but a guy at the side of the stage with "laughter" cue cards won't help it one bit.
should be left to die while it still has a fair degree of respect.

The latest rumblings about Red Dwarf.
Dear fellow Dwarf fans! You like us, may have been delighted by the slew of stories over the weekend suggesting that Dave has indeed commissioned a brand new series of Red Dwarf.
Well, I am afraid that at the moment this is pure, although delightful, speculation. But, rest assured, if there is any news, any news at all!! You will hear about it on joindave.co.uk first!

Re: New series of Red Dwarf
Lets hope they can recapture what they have lost.
I'm all for a good series.
But lets face it, even if this next series is a stroke of pure genius, there will be people that hate it.

I just found this on Robert Llewellyn' twitter.
"Want to re-state that UKTV, aka Dave have commissioned Doug Naylor to write scripts, still a long way to go before it's all official."
It would seem the intention is there.

Re: New series of Red Dwarf
the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
If they make it I'll give it a go. If it's as dire as Back To Earth I won't be watching for long

Re: New series of Red Dwarf
I'm praying that they do a good job but not holding my breath. The Back To Earth special was very poor imo, so disappointing.
