The Characters
This page runs in tandem with the cast. Every issue a character will
be profiled and the actor/actress will get the same treatment in The
Cast section
Dave Lister
David Lister
is the last human being alive. He joined Red
Dwarf as a
quick way to get back to earth, after spending eight
skint months stranded on Mimas, one of Jupiter`s moons. He was put
into stasis for smuggling his pet cat,
Frankenstein, on board. While he was
imprisoned an accident caused by his

roommate
Arnold Rimmer
flooded the ship with Cadmium II radiation and
killed everyone but Lister, who was frozen in time by the Stasis
field.
The ships computer,
Holly
sent the ship
travelling out of the
galaxy and into deep space to protect the planets from the blast.
Lister was freed when the radiation calmed down, 3,000,000 years
later.
Lister`s favourite past times include eating curries, strip
poker, eating curries, female topless boxing, lager and eating curries.
He was born in the 23rd Century, although the exact date is
unknown. He was found under a pool table in a box
and instantly
adopted. His stepfather died when he was six, and at the time
everybody gave him toys, so he remembers wanting more people to die,
so he could complete his lego set. His Grandmother told him Dad had
gone to the same place as his goldfish, so he spent a number of years
believing they`d flushed him down the bog.
He is a fanatical London Jets Zero-G football team suporter and
he planned to name his sons Jim and Bexley after his hero, roof
attack player Jim Bexley Speed.

attack player, Jim Bexley Speed. And he did, when he gave birth to
twin boys, after being made pregnent by
Deb Lister
, his female
counterpart in a parallel universe Red Dwarf accidentally visited.

The Cast
See `The Characters` for details.
Craig Charles
Craig Charles
was born in Liverpool. He admits `If I
could be anything, I`d be a footballer`, and did pretty well, playing
for both Tranmere and Liverpool youth teams. His first taste of
fame was at 19, when he hijacked a DJ`s mike at a nightclub and
ranted a 10 minute poem. He gained a solid reputation from a regular
slot on
Saturday Night Live
as well as hosting other shows such as
Them and us, Craig goes mad in Melbourne
. In 1993 he wrote his first
book,
The Craig Charles Almanac of Total Knowledge.
Recently he has
also presented
Cyberzone
, introduced a series of sci-fi films for
BBC2 and an introduction to C4`s Sci-fi Weekend
"TheCast1"
Note1
and an introduction to C4`s
Sci-fi Weekend
. He has also starred
in an episode of The Bill as a teacher worried about drug abuse. On
Red Dwarf
side he says he will keep working as long as the
scripts are good and he doesn`t mind what the writers are doing to
his character. He isn`t very keen on autograph hunters and tries to
lead a normal life.
The thing has recently catapulted
Craig
into the press is that
he was accused of rape, charged and spent nine months in jail waiting
for his trial. He was aquitted and spent a while afterwards
campaigning for the right to anonyminity for men accused of rape. He
admitted, on the night he was accused of rape, taking drugs, but
swears he has not touched anything since and will never in the
future.

Red Dwarf News
Red Dwarf writers,
Rob Grant
Doug Naylor
have split. On an
interview on Talk Radio UK on 31/10/95 Doug spoke of plans for two
new series` and a Christmas special for `96 but new writers would be
working. Doug will stay on as a writer and producer and it is possible
that
Robert Llewelyn
(Kryten) may write some episodes. Another
change is that Ed Bye, producer of series` 1/4 will return to the
crew.
Rob had already wished to write a book alone, which will be
coming out in `96 and it seems he wishes to back away from the
show, and maybe branch out into other areas.
Also on 31/10/95,
Chris Barrie
(Rimmer) said on The Big
Breakfast that he will work on the new series.

***LETTERS***
This is another section which I can`t run without your help. If your
letter is larger than 1 page A4, and it does get displayed it will be a
text file, like the HELP!!! at the start.
Topics for debate:
Will Red Dwarf be the same without Rob writing?
Do you think less of Craig Charles after the rape
accusations?
Do we really care about mistakes in episodes?
What would you change in Red Dwarf?

***ARTWORK***
Pictures of your artwork will be shown here. I`d like to keep the
files to IFF only, so everyone can use this program. Cartoons can also
be sent, but no animations, sorry. I MUST have art in IFF on disk, as
I have no digitising facilities at all, which is why screenshots from
the TV show would also be appreciated.

Comment from `Moi`
In my opinion the shock news of Rob`s split from the Grant Naylor
writing team isn`t that much of a shock. His need to write a book by
himself showed something was wrong, and for them to attempt a joint
TV show if one of them isn`t happy for them to write a book would
have led to problems.
Apart from that, most news is good news. After fears Chris Barrie
would pull out after seeing provisional scripts he has confirmed he is
taking part, and although Craig Charles admitted taking Cocaine he has
said he was stupid and that he`ll never do it again, and after all
he`s been through the media ought to stop their criticism and agree
with his point to give anonyminity to rape defendants.

Stories
Here is where your stories (and possibly one of mine) will appear. If
they are of any largish length they will probably appear as text files.
If you wish your stories to be serialised, please send the parts as
seperate text files, in fact I don`t mind if you send me the parts
every two months, but make sure you get them to me at least two
weeks before the next issue is due, but please limit stories to four
parts, I don`t want any `neighbours` sort of on-going stories.

Frequently Asked QuestionS
This is the spot where I will answer any question you have about
Dwarf
. Any question (Apart from stupid time questions, like how many
minutes of talking has Lister had?). Some examples of what I mean...
What is the Cat`s real name?
"He doesn`t have a name, we just call
him Cat" said Lister in Dimension Jump (Series IV)
Why doesn`t Red Dwarf ever run out of fuel?
At the front of the
ship is a huge scoop, which sucks in Hydrogen from space. The ship
runs on this.
What does Lister`s insult towards Kryten, `Tetchy` mean?
Tetchy
means irritable or touchy, and Kryten was certainly `Tetchy` about
being called `Tetchy`
