Dr Who / Red Dwarf crossover
Kate Orman
Dear all!
There's a hair-raising rumour going around that Sylvester McCoy and Sophie
Aldred - the Seventh Doctor and Ace, natch - will be making a cameo in the
next series of Red Dwarf.
Pardon my all-encompassing ignorance, but is there any truth in this? One
chap even says his friend told him that he was there for the taping - but
I thought the audience laughter was canned...
Cheers!

This was a rumour last year when Red Dwarf had finished transmitting
season 5. I even have the Dr Who Apreciations Society's newsletter to
prove the *rumour*.
Personally, Ill believe it when I see it.

Red Dwarf, as with all other BBC comedies, ARE NOT CANNED.
How many times do I have to say this?!!!! :-)
As for the "friend of a friend"....how many rumours begin with stories
like this? I consider lost DRWHo eps. as a prime example.
Once more, RD is never canned. Never.

I think the recent thread about canned laughter showed that the laughter was
_NOT_ canned......although, IMHO, it sounds more "processed" in the later
seasons.

If you listen to the laughter in the second series, there is one woman's laugh
that keeps recurring it's a screechy kind of laugh that's easily identifiable,
seeing as it's in >2 episodes that you can hear it, I think that this _may_ be
canned, but then again she may be the clapper loader or something who could
watch every episode.

I've heard similar sorts of people on other shows - they really get on my
nerves. This is not to say that RD has canned laughter...
Red Dwarf Smegazine (latest ish, Vol.2 Issue 1) stated that many of the people
who requested tickets for Series VI had to be disappointed - the larger sets
meant less room, and consequently only 50 or so people could get in...

two seasons and more natural in the rest. In the later seasons, it seems you
get more spontaneous laughter--you know, when one or two people laugh by
themselves or someone has a vouce that projects itself beyond the other
laughter...

The reason for this is that the series is taped very quickly (at least, the
studio scenes are).
The audience who watch are there for the whole filming, hence the repetition
of laughter.
I have been to a filming of a different programme, and they show the
none-studio bits to them on tv screens, so they still get the live laughter.
