Co-written by Kryten actor Robert Llewellyn, this one never did much for me. Kryten in s7 was super whiny about Kochanski being here, so a Kryten centric ep in this series made me feel "uh, no". Although, him taking out pic.twitter.com/mXFTbhWueN

the characters from a Jayne Austin novel is hilarious. In trying to fix Kryten, they find his brother droid, Able who is drug addicted. In the end, this was better than I remember, with a lot of Kryten background stuff. pic.twitter.com/DSgHpP8Duf
