The brilliant cult T.V series comes to the radio read by Red Dwarf's Rimmer- Chris Barrie. On the mining ship Red Dwarf, professional slob Dave Lister works as a technician with his immediate superior and bunkmate, the officious Arnold Rimmer. To say that Rimmer and Lister don't get on would be like saying that high doses of radiation aren't entirely good for you. Quite a coincidence, then, that a radiation leak picks this moment to wipe out Red Dwarf's crew. Having smuggled his pregnant pet cat onto the ship, Lister is imprisoned in stasis - suspended animation - and so has no idea that his crew-mates, including love interest Kristine Kochanski, are being blasted into sherbet. Lister is woken three million years later. Holly, the ship's computer, redirected the ship out of the solar system as soon as the accident happened, and then had to wait for the radiation to reach a safe background level. To keep Lister company Holly resurrects Rimmer as a hologram. He can't touch anything, but he's as irritating as ever.
01. A raucous birthday bar crawl leads Dave Lister to a moon of Saturn and a fateful meeting.
02. Now a lowly technician on a spaceship, and five years from Earth, Dave Lister is in love.
03. Lister goes into stasis. Rimmer fails an exam. The rest of the crew have a bad day too.
04. The crew gain two new recruits. Namely, a vain feline descendant and a neurotic mechanoid.
05. The prospect of female company spurs on a rescue mission from Dave Lister and crewmates.
06. Dave Lister and the crew get answers they don't want, to questions they're afraid to ask.
