Ready To Play
Series XII previews online - next week!
29 September, 2017
We're counting down the days to the premiere of Red Dwarf XII, which lands on Dave on Thursday 12th October. But just as with Series XI, if you just can't wait that extra week, then the good news is that the UKTV Play on demand service will be previewing every episode a week early!
And what that means is that it all kicks off with episode one, Cured, next Thursday 5th October! If you weren't watching the series online last year, or you just need a recap, here are the key facts about the service:
- At present, the time at which the episode will be available to view isn't yet confirmed. Check the UKTV Play site on the day to see if and when it's available!
- As you'll already be aware, Red Dwarf is a big show, with loads of fans. So there's a chance that the demand may - may - cause the site to run more slowly than usual. If you experience problems, just wait a few minutes and then try again.
- But the team at UKTV have been working really hard to make sure the site is even more robust than Starbug - so please don't get too frustrated if you have any connection issues. They will be working on it! But if you want to talk to them, you can contact viewer enquiries.
- Keep an eye on the @UKTVPlay Twitter account for any service issues.
- Do remember that the UKTV Play service is UK-only - if you try to access from abroad, you won't be able to view the show. We'll have more news on international transmissions and digital availability as soon as there's news to share!
- Like most broadcasters, UKTV Play has a registration system in place - and you'll need to register before you can view the show. We'd suggest doing so as soon as you're able to beforehand, so that you can go straight in on the 5th!
- And don't forget, if you can't get online to view the ep, it will be on Dave at 9pm on Thursday 12th October.
And just in case you want to feast your eyes on a bit more of the new series before next week, we've got four new photos for you to take a look at - but to see them in full, head on over to our brand new Series XII Gallery, where we've collected all the photos released so far, just to really whet your appetite...
Red Dwarf XII comes to UKTV Play next week, and to Dave on Thursday 12th October!
