    A pretty fun story is that Chris Barry got a letter from a fan that was going to be held back in school and seeing this episode and Ace Rimmer inspired him that it wasn’t the end of the world and that he could still work hard and achieve his dreams

    Ace Rimmer was created as Chris Barrie was suffering 'Git overload' (not just as Rimmer, but as Gordon Brittas in the Brittas Empire); so Grant Naylor gave him the opportunity to play a hero.

    The DVD bonuses mention how Chris Barrie noticed a genuine reaction from the female crew, when he was playing Ace.
    Craig Charles said Chris took the habit of leaving the set with the wig still on, and that one evening he saw him zooming along the M16 on his motorcycle without a helmet to go straight to a club and have a good time with the ladies as Ace.

    In the books they explain that the salute Rimmer does is not official Space Corp practice, it is something he made up in the hope that it would be adopted and there was no rule against him doing it. There are several variations (named after himself) depending on the situation, ranging from a "Half Rimmer" in an emergency (one hand, 3 circles) to a "Full Rimmer" as standard (one hand,, 6 circles) up to a "Full Double Rimmer" in ceremonial situations (both hands at once, 12 circles each),

    • @Awwscrewit

      Not exactly. Because Ace became a test pilot he never went on Red Dwarf. As a result Lister had a different roommate who recognized his talent, got him to take engineering classes and saved Dave's relationship with Kochanski. It was essentially the Happy Ending universe.

    A kipper is a whole herring, that has been split in a butterfly fashion from tail to head along the dorsal ridge, gutted, salted or pickled, and cold-smoked over smouldering wood chips. In the days of Downton Abbey they used to have smoked kippers as a breakfast choice on the buffet selection. Hence "Smoke me a kipper I'll be back for breakfast".

    @austinseven4720 Рік тому +6

    Typically enough for a multiverse where the same 'souls' end up together in every iteration, 'Spanners' Lister was successful as a consequence of Rimmer being held back. Because Ace was held back, Lister (who was still much the same slob as in the prime reality) had a different bunk mate when he joined Red Dwarf. This new one saw potential in him and encouraged and supported him in taking engineering night classes. There Spanners discovered an affinity for that kind of work and began to excel at it. This earned him a transfer to Europa Base where he met one Ace Rimmer.

I ended up resenting him and my job because I was basically working all week for no money after bus fare. I never did go back to school to do Law and I'm now in my 40s with severe mental health problems and I'll never amount to much.

    So yeah, the Ace theme is definitely and deliberately a Take My Breath Away knockoff because, as Chris Barrie recalled in a panel interview a few years back, they basically wanted Ace to be James Bond-ish; the epitome of cool, as the "evil" parallel opposite of Goalpost Head's supreme smegginess.

    It's probably not surprising to hear that this is one of Chris Barrie's favourite episodes of Red Dwarf. He does such a great job at playing Ace as the complete polar opposite of "our" Rimmer, effectively a combination of Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, Buzz Lightyear and Captain Jack Harkness. And the whole idea that he became the effortlessly cool badass as a result of getting the bad twist of fate as a child is a really interesting twist on the whole idea. It's not the funniest episode of Red Dwarf in my opinion, but it's definitely one of the most memorable and interesting.
    And talking of things that were interesting, I loved hearing your discussion at the end. The way I see it, that's the sign of a good multiverse story if it gets you to sit down and wonder about the other versions of you out there, and the twists of fate along the way that led them there

    I just wanted to say thank you Kat for sharing a bit of your story with us. I'm sorry about what happened with your Dad. He's missed out, because frankly you're pretty great. Stay you (and that applies to both of you)! And thank you both for the Red Dwarf reactions. I've been a fan since it first came out and I was very small. It's a joy to see it making you both as happy watching it as it did and still does me!😃

    My fav bit is when Ace questions Arnie over the technical details of the ship. I'm so dumb at DIY and shit like that, that it makes me laugh at how Ace gets confused at his ineptness.

I love the bit where there all trying to sneak of to go fishing without rimmer, who's woke him up. 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅😂😂. I think that why most people love red dwarf not only is it so funny, but it also makes you think to. Brilliant writing, any like Ace say's smoke me a kipper ill be back for breakfast lol 😂😅😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅

    Had a similar issue with my father, in just trying to get a job after I was forced to come home. All I needed was for him to be able to run me over to the next town, like 10 or 15 minutes out, and I could even buy his gas for him wouldn't have to pay so much for the trips. Refused. It took nearly 8 years more to finally land a job, and that was almost 2 and half years years ago now. I'm now on my 3rd job, and at least making ends meet enough to help pay off my student loans, finally got a car, finally got my license, and in about a year or so I want to move up to what I see as the big job I want to have, sample collection/delivery. Starting wages way above minimum wage, full time hours, most of the time is spent driving, maybe about an hour or two a day packing food factory samples to take back to our facilities to make sure things are staying clean. Big time chill job, and decent wages for it. But I want a year of driving before I go out for it.

  • @JustChrisWillDoTa

    Really enjoyed the reaction. I've loved Red Dwarf so much since I started watching it as a small child back in 1990 I think, when series 4 first aired, and it was just so good. It was the thing that me and all my friends would watch, then excitedly talk about during playtime at school the next day lol.
    I love seeing new people enjoy it and get an appreciation for it, good stuff. I indoctrinated my daughter from early to be into it too, lol. She seems to have drifted away from watching it in recent years, but I bet we could still have fun watching it together.
    Red Dwarf has also helped me get through some really tough times. I hadn't watched it myself for a few years, when, back a few years ago itself now, I had a really quite severe motorbike accident that I was lucky to survive, and after finally getting released from hospital and going home, then laid up in a hospital bed in our living room in a lot of pain, and with wires and frames holding my bones together, I went back to watching RD again, and it really helped me get through the difficult nights when I couldn't sleep. The power of comedy I guess, though the laughs did cause pain in my battered body.
    For anyone who read, sorry about the long meandering story. Just couldn't help remembering it, and it's a conflicting emotion I feel towards it, of trauma but also something familiar and cozy helping me get through. Cheers.
    You've got so many amazing episodes to get to if you keep watching. Can't wait to see what you think to certain episodes. Series 5 is probably my fave one, for me it has the highest number of true classic episodes in one series. Having to prevent myself typing anything that would be a spoiler.

    Always a fun episode, the ending was supposed to be a very "Road Runner" skit, where our Rimmer would walk under and it would fall instantly, but they then realised after filming it, it makes no sense as Rimmer is a hologram and it would just fall through him.

    Having the storyline pivot on the repeat year of schooling does make me wonder if the writer had done any child development or early education courses. Boys typically lag behind girls developmentally and will find themselves behind the 8-ball for their entire education if started at the same age. A year’s delay can counter much of the education gender gap.

    Wait.. You didn't get what a kipper is?.. It's a fish.. I think it's in the herring family.. In Sweden we rarely eat fish (especially smoked) for breakfast, but I assume they do in Britain, so... he was just underlining/spotlighting how much he meant that they shouldn't worry about him dying.. as.. he'll be back for breakfast.

    • @jonnydarkfang2816

      We don't really eat it for breakfast anymore, it's an old fashioned thing to do and you don't really see it much. My gran did used to make kedgeree with kippers though and that was quite nice but definitely not something I'd eat for breakfast, even though it's a "breakfast" dish lol

    This is never spelled out, but I only got it after seeing the promised land. Rimmer keeps Lister sane by being such an emotional mess. Lister is an extremely moral person, and the little ways he protects/nurtures Rimmer when he sees things are serious helps keep him in touch with his humanity.

    Kat you are the "Ace" version of Kat for being where you are now you are living that lucky break.
    Paula no need to worry about a better Paula turning up.
    Red Dwarf was great from beginning but is really getting together in this series Chris Barrie convincing plays Ace and still makes the original Rimmer watchable and funny despite his negative personality. Great to see the other actors get to play alternative personalities too. Kryten out of costume too again he really party of crew no and was the Chemical X that was missing from the early episodes that makes the formula work.
    u got some new catchphrase and actions to use
