      Haaahaha that’s brilliant!
      Back in the days of Windows95 I had these too. The system sound was “Smee” and the alert sound was “Smee-HEEE!” It used to annoy the crap out of my coworkers.
      I used to have a whole host of RD sounds. “Fish!” was also an office favourite and of course “Emergency! Emergency! There’s an emergency going on!”

    All of these are great and i thought the changing the light bulb one might be towards the top as that is one of my personal favourites as well. However 2 of my other favourites amongst many others are 1) from the episode Whitehole i think. ' Kryten : [Red Dwarf has shut down] Listen. Can anyone hear anything? No. precisely. No one can hear anything. And you know why we can't hear anything?
    Rimmer : Why?
    Kryten : Because there are no sounds to hear!
    Rimmer : Kryten, isn't it about this time of year your head goes back to the lab for re-tuning?
    and also i can't remember which episode this is but after he gets thrown in and compacted down to cube shape in the garbage compacter. Camera zooms in close and he says' I'm almost upset' or something similar :)

    One of my favourite Kryten moments was during Series 8, I believe the episode was Krytie TV where Rob and Craig both forgot their lines and just improvised. Doug Naylor then said it was even funnier than what he originally wrote and wondered if he should have an entire episode made up of improv. I forget the exact exchange to the letter, but it went something like this:
    K: I presume you've heard the news about Ms Kochanski?
    L: What news?
    K: You mean you haven't heard?
    L: Heard what?
    K: The news!
    L: What news?!
    K: The news about Ms Kochanski
    L: What about Ms Kochanski?!
    K: What, no one's told you?
    L: Told me what?!
    K: The news about Ms Kochanski!
    L: What about Ms Kochanski?!
    K: About Ms Kochanski and her ex-boyfriend Tim!
    L: What about Ms Kochanski and her ex-boyfriend Tim?!
    K: I can't believe it!
    L: Believe what?!?!
    KI I can't believe you don't know!
    L: What don't I know?!
    K: I can't believe that no-one's had the guts to tell you the terrible, terrible, terrible, appalling news! I'm not sure I can even speak now.

    To which Kryten responds: "Well if he did sir, I'm sure it was completely off the record!"

    • @peterdefrankrijker
      @peterdefrankrijker 11 місяців тому +5

      Another great example of prime interstellar banter.
      I always loved the bit about Captain Oates: “History, Lister, is written by the winners. How do we know that Oates went out for this legendary walk? From the only surviving document: Scott's diary. And he's hardly likely to have written down: "February the First, bludgeoned Oates to death while he slept, then scoffed him along with the last packet of instant mash." How's that going to look when he gets rescued? No, much better to say "Oates made the supreme sacrifice," while you're dabbing up his gravy with the last piece of crusty bread.”
      Okay, not Kryten so a little off topic, but a fantastic piece of writing nonetheless. I always likened the great episodes to the works of Terry Pratchett, he’s got the same kind of humour.
