Enjoyable episode with plenty of pop culture tributes

The crew encounter Camile a being who appears different to all who see her.

I enjoyed this one for the general banter, pop culture tributes and the superb joke involving the Cat.

The plot is a cross between the Star Trek episode The Man Trap and a spoof of the movie Casablanca. Grant and Naylor write a fitting tribute to the above and throw in multiple references to movies, stars and TV shows.

My favourite part without a doubt is the when the Cat meets Camille and sees the appearance designed to please him. This is both hilarious and a great way of summing up Danny-John Jules' character.

Performances of all are excellent as always, particularly Robert Llewelyn who has most of the episode's focus.

This is in my view the worst episode of Red Dwarf Season IV, but that doesn't mean for a second that it is bad no, absolutely not! I still gave it a ten. For it is a truly great episode but compared to the next five in this season it is the weakest, but both "worst" and "weakest" are harsh words. The exact word I want, is unknown to me: least...lowest...bottom? Nope none fit. Long story short great episode, but not the best in this particular season.
