Great TV rumours!

Yes, rumours is all they are, but they are such great rumours I thought it would be worth repeating them here.

1. Robert Llewellyn is [reported to have said][1] that the BBC is planning a new 1 hour [Red Dwarf][3] episode to be filmed later in the year. This would be a real gift. I really hope this one is true.
2. [Steven Moffat][5] (soon to be top dog at [Doctor Who][4]) has [spoken about the possibility about a Who movie][2], without actually saying anything. I love my Who, and really don’t see the need for a movie, but the increased exposure it would give the franchise, in the form of people who never watch public television would be great.

Red Dwarf fanfic review (almost)

A few years ago, without access to a television, I was getting a little Red Dwarf deprived. I had copies of most of the scripts which I enjoyed reading and I also discovered a few interesting fanfic stories.

Just the other day I came across a small document I made that outlined the stories I had found and put them in chronological order.

Next to one called “Blue Giant”, among other things I had written:

not great writing, bit juvenile

As they would say on Slashdot “you’re new here aren’t you?”… Isn’t this a standard definition of most fanfic?
