Let’s get out there and tweet it: Dimension Jump XX

It’s Red Dwarf’s 30th anniversary year and while this event wasn’t marked by a new series of the show, or even some kind of TV special, there’s a far more important date in the Red Dwarf calendar – it’s only Dimension Jump XX, the 20th edition of the dedicated convention from the Official Red Dwarf Fan Club. And this con is marking this milestone in style with the biggest guest list yet. There were the boys from the Dwarf themselves in the shape of Chris Barrie, Craig Charles, Robert Llewellyn and Danny John-Jules along with former series regulars Chloe Annett, Hattie Hayridge and Norman Lovett as well as prominent guest stars Tony Slattery, Mac McDonald and Ian Boldsworth who also served as the best warm up ever for recent shows. And of course, there was the creator himself Doug Naylor. But what other surprises were in store for the assembled Red Dwarf fandom? Without further ado, let’s dive into social media to find out what went on at the Crowne Plaza Nottingham between the 5th and 7th October.
