SCI-FI geeks are in for a treat — Red Dwarf is making a comeback

The cult show’s cast are reuniting for a final hurrah to celebrate a decade since the series ended.

Chris Barrie (Rimmer), Craig Charles (Lister), Danny John-Jules (Cat), Robert Llewelyn (Kryten) and Chloe Annett (Kochanski) have all agreed to take part.

Bosses at digital channel Dave have ordered four 30-minute shows for next year, which will take viewers on a trip down memory lane. They will see the stars pull on their old costumes for some original sketches and also feature some of Red Dwarf’s best bits.

An insider said: “Red Dwarf was one of the Britain’s most cherished shows, which while it seemed quite geeky, had a huge audience.

“At its height eight million viewers tuned in so it feels only right that we should have a celebration.

“All the major cast members have signed up — even those who have been in the news for the wrong reasons lately.”

The project should start filming in October 2008.
