So it finally happened Red Dwarf is back. I must admit I wasn't sure about it. After season 7 and 8, then Back to Earth which to put it bluntly were crap. They lost there edge and just weren't as funny any more.
Then two days ago the first episode of Season Ten came out.... I was pleasantly surprised, I found it funny, it didn't lose its cheesiness, put cleverly thought out jokes.
I lot of people have been very picking about the fact that holograms aren't suppose to age. True they aren't but they couldn't really stop Chris Barrie from ageing now could they, get over it, it couldn't be helped, it has been over ten years. Most of the cast has changed Robert Llewellyn is a little chubbier which can be seen through his new costume, Craig Charles look a lot older and slightly rough, and Chris Barrie has aged to well. Danny John Jules on the other hand looks exactly the same and got back into the role of the Cat brilliantly, he was the one I was looking forward to seeing back on the screen the most and he didn't fail to please.
All in all this was a nice surprise, I enjoyed seeing them all back together on the screen and I found it very funny. If you loved Red Dwarf and haven't seen it yet, do give it a go I'm sure you will be happy with what they have done.
Watch this space.
