Did anyone watch the first episode of the new series yesterday?
I will have to wait a little longer to see it, but I am really curious whether it lived up to the expectations.
So excited that there is a new series, I never thought we'd see the day!

I forgot it was on so I'm gutted. I'm going to try and find a link to it and I'm definitely going to watch/record the next one. I follow Andrew Ellard on Twitter, have done for ages, he writes it. Will let you know once I've watched it. I loved the original especially Kryton.

Signed up to Dave specially so I can watch it but for some reason it isn't playing on my I-player. I'll have to try an ordinary computer and see if I have any luck!

Not caught up with the new series yet, but I gather it's fab!

A new Red Dwarf! I hadn't heard. If any Americans figure out how to see it, please share.

Have the original on DVD. Introduced some teenaged relatives to it and they loved it.

Who is in it?

Dunno if this is any good...

I watched it over the weekend, it's quite good, actually!
Loved the "moose" joke, thought that was classic Red Dwarf, everyone against poor stupid Rimmer
Will definitely watch the next episodes as well.

On DVD?

**Posted by besleybean** October 9, 2012 7:06 am

No, it's just been shown on TV!

**Posted by veecee** October 9, 2012 6:29 pm

Oh, we have to wait here in the US, then.

**Posted by Davina** October 11, 2012 8:42 pm

Just watched episode 2. It's good.

**Posted by besleybean** October 11, 2012 8:45 pm

Ditto!

**Posted by veecee** October 11, 2012 8:51 pm

Aagh! I don't want to wait!

Maybe we Americans shouldn't look at this thread, unless you all want to put spoiler alerts up when necessary. Hard to remember to do all the time, I know.

**Posted by besleybean** October 11, 2012 8:53 pm

But we haven't said a word!

**Posted by veecee** October 11, 2012 9:28 pm

No, you've been very good. But you could slip up.

**Posted by besleybean** October 11, 2012 9:32 pm

Not me!

**Posted by veecee** October 12, 2012 7:40 pm

Thank you. I'd love for someone to explain to me how I could see it now. Then I could practice for when Sherlock 3 comes out.

**Posted by Davina** October 12, 2012 8:29 pm

It's on a channel called Dave. Not a BBC production this time round. No idea how you can get it I'm afraid.

I just googled it, and it looks like you can download them on iTunes? But I want to sit on my couch and see it on the TV.

In this case, I don't think you have many options, other than getting a TV that can play digital files from your computer.
