Subject: Question about Episode when Red Dwarf has a Stasis Leak
This is probably a stupid question, but...

In an early episode Red Dwarf develops a stasis leak on Deck 16 (I think) and
Lister, Rimmer and Cat are able to return to the original Red Dwarf. In a
hotel, Lister and Cat find Kochanski and the old Dave in the Honeymoon Suite
and they are married. Lister keeps jabbering-on about is this or is this not
himself (Lister). Kochanski and the old Dave seem to know that Lister and the
old Dave are one and the same and say to Lister, "Wait five years and
everything will be made clear" (or words to that affect). This time line seems
really screwed-up since Lister is from 3,000,000 years in the future and may
never be able to get back in five years. And since, everyone was killed in the
radiation leak in the first place, how could this whole sequence even be
happening?

Am I just obtuse? Most of this episode doesn't make sense to me.

Addicted, but stupid!

Domo arigato gozaimasu

These are the words of Shogun from the ancient Imperial Capital of Edo.

        I have to agree that I like Claire better as Kochanski, but I
have another question about this episode.  I showed it to a friend of
mine and he noticed that in the final scene Kochanski is on Lister's
arm but she keeps her head down the whole time and you never see her
face.  Was Claire Grogan not there for that shot and somebody else
standing in for her?

I think the five years in question was five years in the life of the
Dave Lister that is on board RD with Cat, Kryten and the Hologram (as
was - haven't see RDVIII) of Rimmer. I bet he's hoping it's Claire
Grogan rather than that Chloe bird when he finally gets his end away.

yes. Apparently, Clare had left the building and was unaware that they needed
her for the last shot, so someone else was asked to stand in her place, which
is why you don't see her face.

Try papadoms and onion bargies. (bindi bargie is also nice, if you can
get it.) My advice is go for a chicken or meat tikka. Build your way
up to a vindaloo. It is rather hot.

And of course phalls (spelling?) are a pleaseant and mild dish, suitable
for the first timer. ;-)

Thanks for the advice, guys. We stood in line at the restaurant for 30 minutes,
didn't get a table, so we went to someplace else. Maybe next time. . .

Line? restaurant?  I'm sorry, you've lost me.. Curry houses up here are
usually near empty when I go with other people... 'course we don't go till
about 10.30pm... ;-)

ah.. That was the slight snag in an otherwise faultless plan... you could
always try opening your own, but that might not be wise... not 'till you
get 3 cooks, tons of money, and a place to set it up..

Can't you like, ring them up and book a table then?  or is that a silly
question?

Well, when you live in the middle of America (like DLister169 and I do
- not exactly a mecca for East Indian culture), curry houses are few
and far between.

In my city of +/- 3 million people, there are only a handful of places
that serve Tandoori.  With only a few places to go, and lotsa people,
I'd imagine lines build up rather quickly.

Major opposite here ( Royal Leamington Spa, England )

In one small road there are 3 curry Houses, in the next small road
another 2, I'll have to do a full count of the town.

I wonder how many are in Coventry ?

Most Indian Restaurants can't spell. You must have seen how the
spelling on menu's varies so much. Balgie? Balgie?? No way.

and the passing by of a dog on a lead proves what exactly? All the
meat dishes I've had, have tasted of lamb.

Depends. Of the 6 curry houses in Potters Bar; 3 were nearly always
empty, 2 have average custom and one 'Potters Bar Tandoori' was nearly
always packed. Excellent food and service.

hmm, I'd prob. go in one of the average customs, or stand outside it,
'till the really good one has a table free.. or the sneeky one, and don't
try this... 'cause I only just thought of it..

if the curry house is a large one, wait for a someone who's just got out
their car (best round a corner or two, or at least not within visible
range of the curry place)  then run up to them and tell them their car's
been nicked/towed away or something.. Then, as they (best to do it on
someone who's on their own.) go to check on their car, you nip and take
the place they were about to have...

failing that.... book a place in advance.. it is a restaurant as well, no?
