DwarfCast 56 – Confidence & Paranoia Commentary

It seems almost every DwarfCast we put out at the moment comes with us apologising for the delays at the beginning. This particular recording comes from only a few months ago, though, so we're getting closer to a sensible schedule. As Ian noted in the last DwarfCast post, this represents the first series we've completed in the seven years we've been doing these stupid commentaries (save for Back to Earth, but shush) so it's a little bit of a milestone. Consequently, we took the opportunity to ha...

DwarfCast 55 – DNA Commentary

Join G&T's Ian Symes and Danny Stephenson, along with hangers-on Rich Lawden, Jezzmund Tutu and Tom Pyott, as we transmogrify your minds and talk all over the top of Series IV episode two DNA . We discuss the unusually high proportion of movie references, Lister's journey to the centre of the moral compass, decades-old editing techniques and the demise of video clubs. We actually recorded this about six months ago, but we've been putting the edit off, due to a tricky situation caused by the ...

DwarfCast 54 – Future Echoes Commentary

Yes, the least reliable Red Dwarf podcast in the universe is BACK. Brilliant. We return once more to the realm of episode commentaries by going almost back to the beginning for Future Echoes. Does it justify its reputation as an all time classic? Is there a pre-determination paradox at play? What's the deal with the light above Lister's bunk? Join us as we fail to answer these questions and more, with G&T regulars Ian Symes and Danny Stephenson joined by very ordinary guests Jezzmund Tutu, R...

DwarfCast 53 – Timeslides / Backwards Forwards Commentary

It's DwarfCast time once again, and this time we're dusting off another commentary recorded on the anniversary weekend, spruced up a bit by a more recent, and possibly ill-advised, commentary on the DVD extra Backwards Forwards. Rejected options for the bonus extra for this 'cast was Hattie's DJ Diary, and 20 minutes of bitter, teary complaints about the broken menu on Disc 2. I think we chose wisely.

DwarfCast 52 – Pete Commentary

Get out your map, identify the nearest hill, and bloodly well run for it because G&T are doing a Red Dwarf VIII commentary and that shit's never pretty. In previous years the Krytie TV commentary decended into a pathetic, drunken argument, and the commentary for Cassandra was so soul crushingly depressing that we never even bothered releasing it.

DwarfCast 51 – Holoship Commentary

It takes a special type of willful negligence to leave G&T so rarely updated since the 25th Anniversary earlier this year, but we've somehow managed to top that by completely forgetting we had two DwarfCasts sat in the bank ready to be published all this time. Oh well!

DwarfCast 50 – Dimension Jump XVII Special

Another Dimension Jump has once again come and gone, and we're all left to pick up the emotional and physical pieces as we try to recover from the best weekend in any given calendar year. It was an odd year for G&T as more than half of our number were involved in the running of the weekend, but as always we still found time for the traditional round-up DwarfCast.

DwarfCast 49 – Justice Commentary

Once more the G&T team have assembled to talk about one of them Red Dwarf episodes everyone seems to like these days, and also cover another series of deleted scenes, worts and all.

DwarfCast 48 – 25th Anniversary Live Special

To celebrate Red Dwarf's twenty-fifth anniversary, we held a small gathering in West London in order to broadcast a load of old Dwarf-related ramblings live to the assembled masses. This is your regular downloadable version of that broadcast. The G&T team (Cappsy, Danny, Ian, John and Tanya) were joined by TORDFC's Jezzmund Tutu and Jo Sharples, and TOS's Seb Patrick.

DwarfCast 47 – Bodyswap Commentary

It's 2013 and yet here we still are, foisting the same old shit on you. Rejoice! Join Ian, John, Cappsy, Danny and the Fan Club's Jo Sharples as we once again gather to talk over an episode of Red Dwarf, namely Bodyswap and the series III deleted scenes. Marvel as we inform you on such as topics as the lack of a live audience, why the cast's impressions of each other should've been included in the final episode and the exact dimensions of Craig Charles' penis.

DwarfCast 46 – CHRISTMAS SPECIAL – Psirens Commentary

So, here it is. Merry Christmas. Everybody's having fun. If by 'having fun', you mean 'listening to a G&T Dwarfcast', that is. Yes, this is a very special Christmas edition of Dwarfcasts, which differs from a normal Dwarfcast in two key ways. Firstly, it has jingle bells at the start, and secondly, there's a load of self-indulgent festive waffle at the end. So marvel at our Christmassed-up jingle, listen to me, Cappsy, John, Tanya and Danny waffle about Psirens (the most Christmassy of all R...

DwarfCast 45 – Series X Semi Retrospective Byte Two

Team G&T has once again assembled in order to talk at length about Series X, in Byte Two of our semi-retrospective. Join Ian, John, Tanya, Danny and Cappsy as we talk the living shit out of Entangled, Dear Dave, The Beginning, Model Shots and what Doug Naylor should be doing with his career, all in our own inimitable 'based-on-watching-show armchair production physiology' style.

DwarfCast 44 – Series X Semi Retrospective Byte One

Join the full Ganymede & Titan team - Jonathan Capps, John Hoare, Tanya Jones, Daniel Stephenson and Ian Symes - for a journey way way back into the past, as we attempt to take a retrospective look at Red Dwarf X, recorded about a week and a half after the series finished. Byte One of this beast contains our thoughts on Trojan , Fathers & Suns and Lemons , revised and updated since the Live Instant Reactions, with the benefit of repeated viewings, insights from the DVD documentary, and s...

DwarfCast 43 – Kryten Commentary

Hey you! Remember the olden days, before Series X? We used to watch the other 50-odd episodes to death, analysing them to the point of insanity. Well, those days are back! Here's a classic episode commentary for Series 2 Episode 1 Kryten . The full complement of G&T staffers - Cappsy, John, Tanya, Danny and Ian - are on hand to talk you through wonky ships, creased foreheads and dead women. But that's not all! After the episode, there's a bonus commentary on the Series 2 deleted scenes, to g...

DwarfCast 42 – Just The Interviews

When are people going to realise - Red Dwarf X is OVER. To bridge the extremely small gap between the final episode being broadcast and the Bluray/DVD being released, here's a collection of all our Series X related interviews. These were originally dotted around our massive instant reaction Dwarfcasts, so we thought we'd bring them all together in one place for your comfort and convenience. So please welcome Bill Pearson, Craig Charles, Doug Naylor, Rebecca Blackstone and Steven Wickham - togeth...

DwarfCast 41 – The Beginning: Instant Reaction

It's the final instant reaction Dwarfcast of the series, beset from all sides by technical problems that make Red Dwarf X 's production look like a walk in the park. But still, this version of the 'cast is the definitive way to listen to how me, Cappsy, Danny, John, Tanya and TORDFC'S Jo reacted to The Beginning , joined along the way by special guests Jonathan 'Jonsmad' Young and Seb 'Seb' Patrick. There's also yet more exclusive news regarding the next Dimension Jump convention , a summary of ...

DwarfCast 40 – Dear Dave: Instant Reaction

It's the 40th Dwarfcast, and the fifth of our live Series X Instant Reaction chinwags, lovingly made not-live and downloadable, with improved sound quality, but no improvement in any other branch of quality. This week, we're talking about Dear Dave , and in keeping with the episode itself, we flit all over the place, cramming in as many topics as possible, without any satisfying conclusion. But excitingly, the entire G&T team are present for the first time this series - that's Jonathan Capps...

DwarfCast 39 – Entangled: Instant Reaction

If you haven't got time to waste twatting about with other fansites and reviews, why not try our instant reaction Dwarfcast for Entangled? This is the downloadable version of last night's live 'cast, featuring the same mistakes and ill-thought-through opinions, but with nicer audio quality. Ian Symes, Jonathan Capps, Danny Stephenson and TORDFC's Jo Sharples are joined by 'special' 'guest' Seb Patrick, of reddwarf.co.uk fame, who gives his 'insight' from his day spent behind-the-scenes on this e...

DwarfCast 38 – Lemons: Instant Reaction

The power of the Geordie Jesus compels you to download Dwarfcast 38: our instant reaction to Series X Episode 3, Lemons. It's exactly the same as the version we broadcast live - mistakes and all - but with vastly improved sound quality. For the first time this series, Tanya Jones joins her fellow G&Ters Ian Symes, Jonathan Capps and Danny Stephenson, along with the Fan Club's Jo Sharples. We're also joined for sporadic periods by Curtis Threadgold, Carrie n' Kiran Parsons and Peter Martin, a...

DwarfCast 37 – Fathers & Suns: Instant Reaction

Ladies and gentlemen, it's the non-live version of our second live Dwarfcast, our instant reaction to Fathers & Suns. Ian Symes, Jonathan Capps, Danny Stephenson and the Fan Club's Jo Sharples convene to talk about the daddy discipline, predictive Pree and Taiwan Tony, for a very long time. We're ably assisted by some of the least rubbish G&T commenters - Alex Newsome, Kris Carter and Rich 'p2p' Lawden - via Skype, and we've also got a fantastic interview with Pree herself, Rebecca Black...

There's also comments from our excellent community and...
