Today's Treat - On Me (and Link12227 at YouTube)

One of my favorite all-time TV shows was a British Sci-Fi comedy called Red Dwarf. Here's one of the older episodes - "Tikka to Ride".

Background for the show is this: Three million years into the future, after a nuclear accident aboard a mining station in space, the sole occupants travel around the cosmos looking for other life. Those occupants include Dave Lister, a ship's mate who survived by having been serving time in stasis when the accident happened; Arnold Rimmer, the one hologramatic form the ship can support; Cat, a humanoid life form evolved from a pregnant cat that was exposed to the radiation on board the ship; and Kryten, a service android rescued from a junked space ship.

In this episode, Part 2 picks up with Dave Lister tricking the others into traveling back in time with him in search of a curry dinner. They land in Dallas, 1963. (Click the pix.)

(Part 1 is here if you like.)


....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
