Yeah, it was interesting. I wonder why he's so keen on the live O2 show? I mean...... if there were no new series coming then yeah, it could/would be important. But I would think getting two more series in would be a ....... higher .... priority with him than a one off live show, no matter how prestigious.
Producing two back to back is pretty unusual though, especially taking the guys schedules into account. From what I gather a new series IS still the priority, but he wishes to do the live show too due to the anniversary. Why not? Lets how it goes! I often go to the O2, incidentally. I haven't for a while, but relatively recently it was a weekly basis. So this is real nice.
I would love if there was at least 264 episodes of Red Dwarf. That is the number of episodes Hit tv show Fraiser got to.
In hindsight, I wish series XII would have been saved for this year. Starting in Jan, finishing with Skipper on a Thursday, exactly 30 years on from The End. Would have been very fitting for the 30th.
Yes, Skipper is really like birthday special. I watched it yesterday with The End. Shame they didn't make something for the anniversary...
While wouldn't want Series XII put on hold, I do agree that Skipper would have made a great 30th aniversary episodes if it was put aside.
