So what is it? I’ve never seen one before, no one has. But it’s a 90-minute Red Dwarf special. What about Back to Earth? No, that was definitely three episodes (plus they didn’t add up to 90 minutes). And it also found Red Dwarf in a rather odd place after […]
It seems that it only started last week, but we’re already at the end of Red Dwarf XII. With M-Corp last week, we were provided with what may be considered to be typical series closer. It encapsulated various qualities we look for, from a potential changing of the status quo […]
***TO READ THIS REVIEW YOU MUST BE SUBSCRIBED TO THE SILVER LIFE PACKAGE OR HIGHER*** Up to now Red Dwarf XII has more or less lived up to the claim that this series was more “out there”. Robot Hitlers, hundreds of mechanoids, whatever Timewave was and mechanoid elections have proven […]
