Notes
- Features the return of Norman Lovett as Holly.
- Contains a reference to “Backwards” from Season 3’s final joke.
- The first time we’ve properly seen any others from the Cat race since Season 1’s “Waiting For God“.
- Fans sometimes refer to this as “Series 13”, but it’s not officially labeled that, much in the same way that “Back to Earth” is not really labeled as “Series 9” either.

#RedDwarfMarathon Ep 74 - The Promised Land - 9 Apr 2020 4/4 which all work for me. Loved Rimmer in low power mode. This was excellent. It was recently announced there's going to be more #RedDwarf, so it doesn't end here. Don't overlook this one - it was quite good, and funny if you know the show.
