  • A compilation of every* Space Corps Directive/Protocol/Health & Safety rule on Red Dwarf, plus some Rimmer Directives thrown in!
    Obviously just the ones we see on-screen.. there are a whole lot more elsewhere!
    *Unfortunately clips from the Promised Land are unable to be included, but have listed these below:
    Extreme caution should be taken on the naturist deck when peeling carrots.
    Derelict ships have to be made safe before the senior officer ventures on-board.
    Any unnecessary ship should dispose of itself by flying straight into the nearest sun.
    No ship may be decommissioned that contains living crew members who are listed on the manifest.

    I think my favourite part of these jokes is how the directive Rimmer quotes is always quite close in number to the actual one he wants to quote, yet contains ENTIRELY different things. Why are the rules about prisoners of war right next to the rules about parking for the delegation?

      Right? Also, comparing some from different scenes, we get 596 about the crew's files being for the captain's eyes only sitting between 595 and 597, which are both about quarantine.

    (Presumably the name of the service changed after this directive was established without the directive being updated.)

    *Space Corps Directive 349:* "Any officer found to have been slaughtered and replaced by a shape-changing chameleonic life form shall forfeit all pension rights"
