Notes
- There is a remastered version of this episode, but I will be using the original version.
- The first episode with Kryten, but the only one with David Ross playing him. David also does the voice of Talkie Toaster.
- Rimmer says his self created nickname that nobody called him was “Ace”, some foretelling for the future “Ace Rimmer” character.
- The first appearance of the ship’s shuttle, “Blue Midget”.
- Holly’s “Additional”: As the days go by, we face the increasing inevitability that we are alone in a godless, uninhibited, hostile and meaningless universe. Still, ya gotta laugh, haven’t you?

Series 2 starts off with the inclusion of a new character, an android named Kryten. He was on a crashed ship, and Red Dwarf picks up their distress signal. Thinking they're going to meet women, the Dwarf crew spend a lot of time pic.twitter.com/BdHPzUDxYj

preening (which is super funny). Once they get there they find out that the women are all dead and Kryten doesn't know it. Kryten comes on board and ends up comically rebelling against Rimmer. VERY quotable episode! #BigMan pic.twitter.com/qlP1r3rz2C
