Smoke Them a Kipper, They'll be Back for Breakfast

Oh, screw down my diodes and call me Frank!

After a criminally long 10 years, Red Dwarf will be airing FOUR specials in 2009. That's right, the classic SF/Comedy series by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor is preparing to come back, however briefly, next year. This is perhaps the greatest thing the BBC has done since they hired that Russell T. Davies character to dust off The Doctor.

But is ten years too long, can they recapture the magic? Sure, why not? As Holly told us
Time is a great healer. Unless it's a rash, then you're better off with ointment.
This is great, I'm practically in heaven--people heaven, that is--there's not such thing as silicon heaven.
"No silicon heaven? Preposterous! Where would all the calculators go?"

YES! I hope Lister finds Naan, Papadoms and beer!

This is good news! It has been too long since we have been blessed with new Red Dwarf material. It's like the Israelite sojourn through the wilderness, except without manna.
