Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

With its scenario established, but refusing to ever accord to genre or TV formatting, the second series of Red Dwarf went right ahead and broke as many rules of taste and convention it could get away with! We're introduced to "Kryten" (although not Robert Llewelyn who was to take over the part late) as the gone-peculiar servant droid attending the literal skeleton crew of a crashed ship. When the lads expect to meet three attractive female officers, watch for the hilarious scene following the line: "We're not on the pull". Then in the game Better Than Life we learn all manner of awful historical Rimmer stories as his skewered psyche spoils an opportunity for everyone's dreams to come true. Last on the tape is an excellent piece of science fiction (oddly enough!) that has everyone trying to solve the mystery of four days missing in their memory. "Thanks For The Memory" is always to be remembered for its masterful recipe for a fried egg chilli chutney sandwich too! --Paul Tonks


Synopsis

Episodes are: 'Kryten', 'Better Than Life' and 'Thanks For The Memory'.

4.0 out of 5 stars The next installment of this amazing sci fi comedy, 19 Nov 2003
With Red Dwarf now firmly established we are given the second series. The first three episodes of series 2 Kryten, Better Than Life and Thanks For The Memory. These 3 episodes have a great mix of gags and one liners. In Kryten we are introduced to the series 4000 mechanoid and he joins the crew. It`s a shame that he disappears at the end of this episode but thankfully he returns in series 3. WE ARE NOT ON THE PULL ! one of the best gags in this episode and others which i won`t spoil for anyone who hasn`t seen this tape before. In Thanks for the Memory we see that Lister really does care about Rimmer and in Better than Life we see just how warped Rimmer`s mind really is. An excellent tape and a good way to continue where series 1 left off. BUY IT !!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfection, 14 Dec 2001
By A Customer
Red Dwarf 11 starts here. Alongside series 3, the best Red Dwarf series - mixing hilarious gags with action and character dialogue - bliss. This tape takes a wonderful look at the relationships between men when they are forced to live together.

Kryten-
The tremendous episode where we first meet the loveable droid, Kryten. Extremely funny and entertaining. The boys are just on the pull! It feels like a boys night out. Great! Holly is fantastic in this episode, as is David Ross who plays the robot. Top stuff. 4/4

Better Than Life-
A fantastic premise - a computer game where your wildest dreams come true! Very funny and very entertaining. Once again, the boys look like they're having a lot of fun in this episode. There's a delightful emotional stance, where we feel sorry for Rimmer. Very believable and utterly charming. Superb romp. 4/4

Thanks For The Memory-
Starts with a wonderful birthday party for Rimmer. Feels like a stag night! A very touching story of friendship between Lister and Rimmer. These two DO care about each other. Rimmer is to be loved rather than loathed. The episode mixes comedy and drama superbly. An inventive plot. Nice. 4/4

5.0 out of 5 stars Smeggin Hell The Post Pods Arrived!!!!!!!!!!!, 3 Dec 2000
This is easily one of the best red dwarf videos you will ever find.....ever!On this video you get to see Kryten fo the first time, you get to see rimmers reaction to his fathers death, also Rimmer gets his second girlfriend eber with the help of Lister. Kryten - Kryten is possibly on of the greatest characters ever written. With his cleaning skills and comedy value. If they hadn't have found Kryten in this particular episode I don't think Red Dwarf would have been the same. Kryten seems to hold the crew together by being the clever one although he has quite scary loving feelings for Mister Lister ua dwarfers wouldn't be without him. Better Than Life- On of my personal favourite episodes. THe post pod has arrived, finally after it has been tracking them for 3 million year but Holly thinks thats just about average for second class post. In the post pod they find many AI Computer Games, Rimmer gets a letter from his mother explaing that his father passed away peacefully in his jeep (sleep) and he also gets a unfortuneate suprise from the inland revenue. The crew go into a computer game. Lister takes up golf and get a lepord skin waterbed in the shape of a guitar, cat gets off with a mermaid and Rimmer becomes succesful for a very, very short period time. Thanks For The Memory- It's rimmers death day and the crew celebrate by eating sausages and drinking a lot on a moon. Rimmer ends up telling Lister that he has had sex once, only once. Yvonne McGrunder, 16th of March 7:31pm till 7:43pm, 12 minutes and that includes the time it took to eat the pizza. Anyway lister gives rimmer one of his old girlfriends and it ends up in a pile of confusion. SMEGGING FANTASTIC! If you aren't a red dwarf fan this is a great video to try out, it is a fab example of what red dwarf is about.

5.0 out of 5 stars Red Dwarf
Hilarious BBC sci-fi comedy. Very entertaining. There's a splendid mix of drama and comedy in all three epidodes.
Kryten, Better Than Life and Thanks For The Memory.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is what got the series going
Forget the polished look of the later series; the humour was in complete abundance, something that far overlooked the grey scenery and cloth uniforms. Read more
