Thanks to the guys over at G&T for having their fingers firmly on the pulse. Craig Charles has announced 2 more series of Red Dwarf, filming in January.
To hear for yourself, goto the BBC iPlayer, forward to 1hour and 21minutes
The transcript is below
“…the Smegheads are a thing from… em…, it’s from the Red Dwarf days, isn’t it? Which I can now announce – we’re going to be doing two more series of it. Starting in January next year.”
[Production guy, muffled since he clearly doesn’t have a mic, asks something like “Is that like a proper exclusive?”]
“That is an exclusive mate! What d’y’think?”
[Production guy: “That’s pretty impressive.”]
“Gone a bit nervous.”
[Pg: “Were you meant… are you allowed to say that?]
“Emmm… no. But I got the call today and it said ‘Craig, can you do it in January?’ I said ‘Yeah, I’ll sort it out.’ So I will be able to do it in January and… emm… I’m a bit nervous though – I don’t know if I’ll be able to fit into leather trousers anymore.”
