Book Reviews of Red Dwarf (The Least Worst Scripts) Primordial Soup

Book Review: Stick to the Script
Summary: 5 Stars

You're sitting at home watching your favourite "Red Dwarf" episode, laughing along, when all of a sudden a power blackout leaves you sitting in the dark. "What am I going to do?" you cry in despair. "What's going to make me laugh now?" Tears begin to flow.

However, in a parallel universe there is another version of you who happens to own a copy of the "Red Dwarf" scripts: Primordial Soup. All is not lost. With a copy of the scripts and the aid of a torch you can simply pick up from where the characters were cut off in mid-sentence. The book even contains photographs in the middle section to help you remember what the characters look like. Life isn't so cruel after all.

In this book Rob Grant and Doug Naylor have chosen what they consider to be "the least worst" of the "Red Dwarf" scripts. There are six episodes altogether: "Polymorph", "Marooned", "Dimension Jump" (my favourite), "Justice", "Back to Reality" and "Psirens".

It doesn't need to be said that the ideas used in "Red Dwarf" are clever and funny. The episodes chosen here are from the first five years of "Red Dwarf", before the budget became too extravagant, making it possible for these episodes to be "remastered". You can read these scripts and still laugh while your other self discovers there are no batteries for the torch either. Enjoy the lunacy.
