Quotes
Rimmer: Lister was saying you like and admire me, Kryten. Is that true?
[Kryten freezes, wide-eyed]
Lister: [uncertainly] Look, he nodded.
Rimmer: He didn't move!
Lister: That was a proper nod! A definite seven-degree head tilt! How could you miss that?
[Rimmer takes another look at Kryten, who is still frozen in shock]
Lister: He did it again! And again!
Rimmer: Kryten, do you like me?
[as Kryten is still frozen, Lister gives him encouraging nods]
Rimmer: Well, do you?
[Kryten's head tilts forward. He's close to crashing]
Lister: There you go. What'd I tell ya?

Thoroughly Enjoyed

A good solid episode that benefitted from the long run time meaning there was no need to rush the script. Plenty of laughs referencing previous episodes for those that have followed Red Dwarf from the start. Great to see it filmed in front of a live audience again as it adds to the atmosphere.
