There is a new Red Dwarf coming out. [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/Q-YaZxZTl-E/maxresdefault.jpg "Red Dwarf The Promised Land | Thursday 9th April | Dave") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-YaZxZTl-E) Feature length, coming out on Dave. I assume it will be available online at some point after that. ---

You rang? It’s been many years since the show was worth watching. I’ll watch this, but not with great hope. ---

My kitchen is mostly SMEG appliances and I came to see what dopers had to say about that (Spoiler: I am not conviced: nice superficial design, flawed technically. Italian… reminds me of their cars). And now you are all talking about something else and I don’t know what it is. And claim SMEG appliances make you laugh? Don’t get it. Never mind.
