I love the fact that while being backing dancers/singers, Chris is very much doing it as rimmer with rimmer's uptight mannerisms (standing arms.straight at attention) while Craig is performing with lister's more slovenly demeanor (e.g. more hands in the pockets). I hadnt fully picked up that detail before.
Not bad, kind of weird to think that early RD predates stereo recording by a year or so. Doctor Who's 1988 season was the first bbc stereo production later that year.
unless I have the timeline wrong here, don't the first stereo episodes of Top of the Pops predate DW series 25? They recorded TOTP in stereo occasionally from late 1986 up to the start of September 88, when it went stereo permanently due to Radio 1 starting a weekly simulcast
sounds about right, Red Dwarf was first filmed in late 1987 and then mid 1988. NICAM was first used in 1986 for the first night of the bbc proms. by 1991 it was offically standardized across the country on the bbc after all transmitters were upgraded. So that makes it hard to tell exactly when stuff swapped around. And this is coming from a guy from the USA. MTS Stereo was started around 1984 and was adopted widely by 1994. MTS is the standard used for broadcast in north america. @@joshbaker1581

Show started before i was even born, I was brought up on this as a kid - If not the best TV Series ever created & at 31 i still watch it on the regular.
Almost year 2025, im Czech living in Austria, soon 35 years old yet im again 15 anytime somebody or something reminds me zhe RED DWARF. Thank you guys ❤
The quality is the best I have seen, thank you. One of the best sketches on the show I must have watched in dozens of times when it was first broadcast.
I love the fact, that it's not sung by the actor Danny John-Jules, but by someone called Ďanny John-Jules, possibly his twin brother, or is it an artistic name?
@@chrismaguire3667 That is where Red dwarf flowered from. Dark Star is still too weird for me I saw that and the schlock together 40 some odd years later I have not recovered lol
They did! Though the release was in 1993, so around the time of series 6. It reached number 17 in the UK chart. Though it was, more accurately, a reworked version Danny came up with rather than this one.
Made before the Beeb become woke and knew what a woman was. RD could never really be made this way - if *ever-* these days. What a sad commentary on the times!
@@YoungButRetro But there is none. The commenter is correct anyway. The BBC has been corrupted by politics so much now that it has ruined many great shows. The main one for me was Doctor Who. I grew up a huge fan of the series but then it died for me. Woke doesn't care for the story as much as it does for "the message".
I'm looking for this dream I had last month on the dream recorder. It was me, 3 girls and a family sized tub of banana yoghurt.

Yes!! They also do the choreography pretty well ay? Love rimmers salute at the end. God, red dwarf must be one of the best shows ever. ❤❤❤❤❤
I feel like Danny needs to do strictly come dancing purely so he can dance to this song again…ideally with a cameo from Craig and Chris.
You are a genius.
He was on strictly in 2018!
@@thugisa17 well so he was! Apologies for the oversight! Sadly doesn’t look like he danced to this song though which seems like a missed opportunity.
@@StuBlair-f4j He did dance to Top Cat though, which was a neat choice.

@@aftermath_96 might be true.
Yeah I remember reading TOTP went stereo in '88 as well. I think Blackadder 4 was the first sitcom shot in stereo AFAIK and that was '89.

Remaster sounds great. Well done.
Thank you!
Smegging marvellous!
ive listened to this 5 times every night for the past 3 days
@@Theyoungveinsreuniontour2025 that's dedication my friend!
Sounds GREAT! Like how clean the video is too. One of my favorite songs that needed a re-mix so bad, thank you!
video is only clean cause hes reduced the size of it, like playing it on a smaller tv, it looks better
Can't foir the life of me work out what the guitars are doing in verse, absolute funk shred
The quality is the best I have seen, thank you. One of the best sketches on the show I must have watched in dozens of times when it was first broadcast.
Awesome, no canned laughter like it was on the original show
Wonderful remaster, can really hear the difference :)
Imagine how much they must have laughed during filming this! Absolute classic!
Been here all day. Love it. Thank you.
One of my fav songs!
Mine is still the Rimmer song
An idea - Danny to perform this on the last ever Death In Paradise alongside Don Warrington and the rest of the cast.
Smegging brilliant 👌
That Cat can sing!
This is rock n roll pure full stop
good shit man
Thanks mate!
Well done, good sir! Thank you so much!
sensmegingsational
Marvellous.
Yass this is great love it
this is almost as good as a mutton vindaloo
Almost as good as a triple fried egg chili chutney sandwich.
Sounds great in stereo.
Love this so much! 😀
Great job 👌
They should do this again with Kryten
Sexy Mode
Thank you SO much for this remaster!!
Excellent!
Wow this is crazy good
Brilliant thank you
I keep coming back to this, great way to feel good and get grooving
Nice one!

Dont know how they got there in the credits haha
And Ďoug Naylor
For as much of a joke this bit was. It was genuinely a good song and an even better dance routine
it sounds much better especially without the laugh track
2:33
Smeg yes.
*"FISH!"*
I'm giggling my self to sleep
someone bring this to clone hero/yarg thank you please
Far-in I didnt think anyone remembered RD
This is pretty good although I feel the percussion is mixed too high.
I Love this, even tho Craig hated it lol
Have you seen Dark Star?
Can't say I have
Same, but not as funny...😕
@@chrismaguire3667 That is where Red dwarf flowered from. Dark Star is still too weird for me I saw that and the schlock together 40 some odd years later I have not recovered lol
I think we have it on DVD. Is it that low budget film made by college students about them in a space ship and a beach ball alien?
Theo Malranet was herw
where did you get the stems?
