And to think, this was only 4 or 5 years after Patrick Stewart mistook Red Dwarf for a rip off of Star Trek: The Next Generation and almost called his lawyer🤣 Glad he soon realised the show is its own unique comedy show and became a fan himself. Even more glad he had the honour to present Red Dwarf Night.
Back when TV was good. I first discovered Red Dwarf around this time, not from the TV show, but from "Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers". I didn't realize, nor discover until some time later, that there was an awesome TV show the book was based on!
A bit of Star Trek TNG trivia. Patrick Stewart directed a number of episodes of TNG, and the episodes were assigned a director once they were written. There was a list, and if you were on the top of that list, you got the next completed script. One of the episodes Sir Patrick Stewart, a Shakspearean trained actor from England, directed was the Western episode titled "A Fistful of Datas."
Marina, Michael, and Brent never let him forget it. "He used to complain about smoke so much when he was in front of the camera, and when he was behind the camera, he would shout, 'MORE SMOKE!!'"
I write from 2023. I can't believe this is 25 years ago now.
Me too.
I basically liked every comment on this video.
Nostalgia personified.
Not just that though; I remember watching this live (well I caught the original broadcast)
Red Dwarf is just the best
3:17 Oi, Keep that slurping down we're trying to watch a bloody film here!
It’s like Star Trek voyager
What was that “The projected man” thing?
Patrick Stewart said that he was Outraged that he saw an episode of Red Dwarf I believe it was gunman of the apocalypse as a rip off of Star Trek the next generation
I think the story goes he was annoyed when he was told about it, then watched some and realised it was its own thing with a lot of merit.
@@Khakhees That makes sense. If anything the story sounds a lot more like "Specter of the Gun" from TOS. But, yeah, it's its own thing.
Yeah, he thought it was a rip-off of 'A Fistful of Datas', he starting dialling his lawyer, then he started to realise it was a comedy & couldn't stop laughing.
@@bigjonradio How ironic as 'A Fistful of Datas' was also a TNG episode Patrick directed lol
