Red Dwarf X rumor control from those in the know

With that, the need for a bit of Red Dwarf X clarification. What better place to go than to the folks who would obviously know over at RedDwarf.co.uk to eliminate speculation that might find its way around the space-time continuum. To be fair, Craig was 50% correct as “everyone is back on board”. Building sets? Not so much. According to the RD site:
- The series will feature Rimmer, Lister, Cat and Kryten, once again played by Chris Barrie, Craig Charles, Danny John-Jules and Robert Llewellyn.
- There will be six episodes in the series. The numbering of ‘Series X’ being both a pretty good promotional title for the channel, and technically correct since Back to Earth was a ‘ninth series’.
- Shooting will take place this coming November, December and January, with broadcast likely slated for September 2012. That apparent delay is born of common sense – after its complex post-production, Red Dwarf X would be ready to broadcast in the summer, but that’s a time of low audiences. An autumn launch will make the very most of Dave’s new commission.
So, going forward, go to the official sources like RedDwarf.co.uk or risk a meet up with a very cross, deranged killer penguin, Mr. Flibble.
