Episodes like this from the first 4 or so series ensure Red Dwarf's immortality. This episode ("Marooned"), for example, relied almost entirely on brilliant comedic dialogue alone . . . Genius
Actually, from what I read, it wasn't actually dog food Charles ate. It was actually tuna mixed with meat jelly to look like dog food. Charles stated that it tasted so bad, he might as well have just eaten dog food.
I would try dog food (especially if I was starving) just to see what it would taste like, dog treats too, I have tried these chewy dog bar treats and they tasted very nice.
One of the biggest questions I have about the dog food is this: How come, after 3 million years, they suddenly have a can of dog food, and for that matter, wouldn't it have gotten moldy? They weren't allowed to have pets on board Red Dwarf, so why would they have a can of dog food there? Why not cat food? It could have belonged to Lister's pet cat he had and just frozen for 3 million years.
Huh,I could theorize that the dog food could've been brung on board and possibly would only be eaten in the case of emergency if the crew had no other option regarding (the) food source/sources (other than canabilizing the other crew members on ship,but in regards to which in since lister and Cat are the ONLY human-OR-slash-human like carbon-based beings still residing on the red dwarf ship that aren't holographic nor androidic-meaning/referring to Rimmer,Kryten and/or the AI system holly in this sense actually-and I don't think Dave lister wouldn't really want to stomach that of the Cat,and the Cat wouldn't want to eat lister either..) that are readily available..and since the ship has been in space for a long time,some of the many sustenance-based supplies may-of not been at all consumed by lister and/or the Cat not all that much,really.. And besides,if the dog food (or unwanted canned food that was stored in the ship's containment/stocks) hasn't been opened in years since it got obtained on ship hasn't gone bad,why would it warrant worries about mold..? Lister would've had to test if it was still papable anyways-also,like I stated before,the ship would've had stocks of canned goods to at least last a bit of a lifetime,regarding the conditions,eh..?
Huh,also the thing about lister's cat and the aforementioned dog food then..? Hmm,maybe lister's cat wasn't a picky eater also..anything goes,right..? Eh..?
You could literally eat the styrafoam cup they came in and not notice any difference... granted as a kid in the 80's it wasnt the taste, but just the novelty of microwavable noodles in a pot in less than a minute. Was like a sci-fi kinda thing, Ooooo technology!.. space age freeze dried foods... yeah still they were pretty crap, they've gotten better though thats for sure, but still not a patch on real noodles.
112Bluestar For backup food stocks in the case of emergency. If a majority of the food sources have been (rather) reduced to more or so less than canned non-persishables and/or dog food,and you're hungry and that's what's readily available on hand-what are you gonna do? Eat the canned dog food/pet food,or perish/suffer/die from malunutrition and hunger then? It's common logic regarding survival even if you're only reduced to dog food or other food-based things..duh. Eh..?.
You also have to ask yourself these questions, even though they are in this Marooned episode, but not in this particular clip: Rimmer smells the camphor wood after Lister burns part of the trunk. Rimmer touches a button to call for help. Rimmer is able to open a cupboard to find a can of dog food. Rimmer tastes gum ointment and says it has a minty flavour. How can Rimmer smell, touch, open something, and taste if he is a hologram?
Holograms can smell, if ship sensor can pick it up. Yeah, that is a fuck up. Did he pick it up or just found it? I dont remember from the episode that Rimmer opened the cupboard, he can phase through. Well, he could have tasted it when he was alive, not necessarily as hologram.
I never understood that about Red Dwarf, I know it's just a comedy and there's a lot of continuity issues and whatnot lol, but why do they think they're the only people left? And why do they think the books also died out with them? Books dont self combust!
The idea isn't that the human race itself has died, although, given how warlike we are as a species, it's stated we may have wiped ourselves out. It's assumed that, in the 3 million years that Lister was frozen in stasis, what were humans would likely have evolved far beyond recognition as humans, and that, in the 3 million years it will take to get back to Earth, they'll have evolved even further - in the same way that, in 3 million years, the cats evolved into something beyond recognition as cats. So Lister may not technically be the last human, but he would definitely be the last of his genus. I know this is an old comment (I'm so sorry, I hope you don't mind), but I hope you can come back and enjoy the story - all those details are actually very well thought out (:
"Now...!"
truly a brilliant mind
the "Now" is actually the very first word in the book :D

2:37 "I'm sure the dog food will be lovely." LOL
I love how Chris screws his face up when he says that.
@@neilgerace355 Yes. Makes him look like Davros.
Now I know why dogs lick their testicles! It's to take away the taste of the food!
Not many shows make you laugh so much that you nearly wet yourself but red dwarf has been doing it for years. Great show.
i love the bit where rimmer thinks Lister burned his guitar! lol.
Rimmers face is just priceless
2:30
2:30 Chris Barrie doing his best Davros impersonation.
The brilliant now speech lol
Now is the summer of our sweet content
"now I can see why dogs lick their testicles"
😂😂😂
Craig Charles wasn't the only actor that ate Dog food, Mel Gibson did the same thing in Mad Max 2.
That must be where Rob and Doug got It from.
Actually, from what I read, it wasn't actually dog food Charles ate. It was actually tuna mixed with meat jelly to look like dog food. Charles stated that it tasted so bad, he might as well have just eaten dog food.
The Dual Survivor guys found a can of dog food in an old log cabin. It's not exactly inedible.
@@DanielS2001 And that's why dogs lick their testicles!
Really wish they were still making this
Love the boyz from the dwarf
They are now. It came back in 2009.

¡Me encanta esta escena! Es de uno mis episodios favoritos.
............NOW..............
3:01 Just got me dying of laughter XD 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Craig Charles: I don't want to be typecast as a slob.
Also Craig Charles: 2:50
He didn't want to be tied down to a career.
"Save page 61...". Rimmer points to page 61, so Lister proceeds to tear out page 60 and chuck the rest, page 61 included, into the fire.
The book was upside down.
Honestly that just makes it funnier
A 20 second unskippable cat food ad just came on.... Excuse me.
This wasn't real dog food as Craig used to say, it was however room temperature tuna mixed with gelatine which was probably just as bad.
In other words, catfood.
I immediately thought of this when my sister tricked me into eating a dog food-flavoured jellybean earlier.
at 01:11 rimer tries not to laugh :D
Should wash it down with Dog's milk
He was for ages on the ship
Full of goodness, full of vitamins, full of marrowbone jelly.
Ah, I've watched it before but "so that's why dogs lick their testicles" hit me like it was the first time.
I would try dog food (especially if I was starving) just to see what it would taste like, dog treats too, I have tried these chewy dog bar treats and they tasted very nice.
I almost ate a portion of my dogs food once. It was some mixture of different kinds of meat with gravy. I was going to have it with rice.
Charles Lamb, Herman Wok, the complete works of Sir Francis Bacon, Eric van Lustbader ...
2:41 Nice try, chef Ramsay.
“ Lolita is it OK I can burn Lolita!???”
ME: Yes Yes Yes Please for the love of god burn the dame thing straight to hell!!!!!
why did you have to write "me" like it was fake dialogue?

Excellent question!
My thoughts exactly! As brilliant as Red Dwarf is, it doesn't come without its continuity errors!
The comedy is more important than the continuity in my humble opinion.
Huh,I could theorize that the dog food could've been brung on board and possibly would only be eaten in the case of emergency if the crew had no other option regarding (the) food source/sources (other than canabilizing the other crew members on ship,but in regards to which in since lister and Cat are the ONLY human-OR-slash-human like carbon-based beings still residing on the red dwarf ship that aren't holographic nor androidic-meaning/referring to Rimmer,Kryten and/or the AI system holly in this sense actually-and I don't think Dave lister wouldn't really want to stomach that of the Cat,and the Cat wouldn't want to eat lister either..) that are readily available..and since the ship has been in space for a long time,some of the many sustenance-based supplies may-of not been at all consumed by lister and/or the Cat not all that much,really..

"Now!"
It wasnt it was tuna and jelly if i remember correctly haha
On a dare one time, I tried a sausage meant for fogs, tasted so nasty that recited the line what Lister said.
Me after my supplies run out in a few weeks :)
0:40 Lister wasn't that far away in the first place.
dog food, if its good enough for mel gibson in mad max 2, then its plenty good enough for lister
How was it possible that he had dog food when they didn't even had a dog to begin with?
Sean Cwilich emergency food source-related purposes,of course-duh..? Eh..?
They had dogs milk in Series 2 as well lol
Rob grant left because he felt that red dwarf was taking over his life.
The characters never changed....so many series....same jokes, same characters...
between the dogfood and that pot noodle we all know whats being eaten last. Lister hates pot noodle.
BBC thats british tv right?
BBC = British Broadcasting Corporation
Bacon bits
What's so bad about Pot Noddles anyway? LOL
they're not that nice!
Let's just say they taste nicer these days. They didn't have much flavour when I was a kid in the 80's.
You could literally eat the styrafoam cup they came in and not notice any difference... granted as a kid in the 80's it wasnt the taste, but just the novelty of microwavable noodles in a pot in less than a minute.

My H fell off lol
He could have at least cooked the dog food.
lol yer i neva noticed that
I wonder why they have dog food on board anyway?

'Now is the winter of our discontent'... will get you the rest of it.
@@Steve-ss6ns Thank you very much
I don't actually know if this is true but rumours have said Craig Charles actually ate real dog food on stage to make this scene :D Ugh...
Did he actually eat the dog food? :O I don't believe it was an actual dog food. Rather prop that looked like that...
Am I the only one here who wonders why they have dog food in the first place they have a cat

I don't get it. I eat dog food every day!

Why don't you eat duck food?
are you serious? have you ever heard of acting? and watch the series III documentary if you want and you'll see im right. unlucky mate.
