Oooh, I had a lovely time at the The National Museum of Photography, Film and Television in Bradford today. I mainly spent my time in TV Heaven. And guess what’s happening there next month?
Red Dwarf
Saturday, May 21, 2005 - 11.00am
Originating as a Radio 4 sketch and developed by two writers from Spitting Image, the adventures of Dave Lister, Arnold Rimmer, Kryten and the Cat have become a cult classic and a huge international hit. Discover how this sitcom came to be made and its distant connection with Thunderbirds and the US sitcom Frasier. We’ll include a screening of the episode Me2 from the first series in 1988.
Distant connection with Thunderbirds = Peter Wragg, and Frasier = Jane Leeves, obviously. Still, this looks rather fun; I shall mail them tonight to see if I can find out any more about the event, and report back. Aren’t I nice?
Maybe we should have a G&T school outing…
