Runtime: 30 min

Can't Smeg, Won't Smeg (Episode 3) 7.0

Air date: 1998-02-14

Runtime: 30 min

Overview: The crew of Starbug is transported to the Can't Cook, Won't Cook studio to see who can cook a better vindaloo. It's Lister and Kryten v. Rimmer and Cat. Well it should have been Cat, but he was worried he would mess up his suit (really he just didn't want to work with Rimmer), so Duane Dibbley took his place. This left Kochanski as the taster (God help her). It's not her fault, she lost the "ippy-dippy"! The show was total, hillarious chaos. Ainsley Harriott (now known as AH – which has a completley different meaning) was run all over the place.

Back from the Dead (Episode 11)

Air date: 2005-11-07

Runtime: 89 min

Overview: A documentary about the seventh series. The contributors are refreshingly frank and fair about the various problems the production faced. They treat subjects like Rob's departure, Chris's departure, the introduction of Kochanski, the various visual effects crises, the guest writers and the lack of audience with honesty and clarity, and all sides of the story are represented.

Identity Within (Episode 12)

Air date: 2005-11-07

Runtime: 30 min

Overview: The "lost" episode of "Red Dwarf" (1988), presented in storyboard form. The Cat is dying, and is forced to have sex in order to stay alive. This script was originally written as an episode of the seventh series of "Red Dwarf" (1988), but was dropped because the budget wouldn't stretch to the story; it was later replaced with the significantly less expensive "Red Dwarf: Duct Soup" (1997). For the DVD release of the seventh series, it was included as an extra feature in order to show what might have been. The first draft of the script, considered the best, was performed by Chris Barrie (Rimmer), then edited by Jem Whippey and set to a series of images drawn by Neil Maguire, in order to get as close to the original concept as possible.

Bodysnatcher (Episode 13)

Air date: 2007-11-12

Runtime: 30 min

Overview: Bodysnatcher was a partly finished script that was written but unused for the first series of the BBC sci-fi sitcom Red Dwarf. To headline the release of Red Dwarf Remastered on DVD in Autumn 2007, the same audio story board process used in recreating the lost episode of Series VII, Identity Within, has been used to create the Bodysnatcher episode. When the script was retrieved from the vaults of Grant Naylor offices, it was found to be without an ending. The writers Rob Grant and Doug Naylor, who went their separate ways during pre-production on the ITV series The 10%ers in 1996, collaborated on bringing the script into line with the series' continuity and giving it an end.

Back to Earth: The Director's Cut (Episode 15) 6.0

Writer: Doug Naylor

Air date: 2009-04-12

Runtime: 70 min

Overview: The Director's Cut of Back to Earth is not an extended version with new scenes, but rather a re-edited, condensed feature that improves pacing by removing filler and structural elements designed for television. It adds no new scenes or dialogue but rather removes what is considered inconsequential material to create a tighter narrative. A key cut is Rimmer's line complaining that the story is a "three-parter," despite other references to such remaining in. The only addition is at the very end: after the extended credits, the words "The End" are typed on a typewriter, reinforcing the meta-fictional theme.

Runtime: 37 min

Overview: Reinstated deleted scenes and newly filmed material, including enhanced visual effects, and the omission of the audience laugh track for a more continuous, cinematic flow, it is 8 minutes and 32 seconds longer, with the most notable addition being an alternate ending.

Overview: Includes significant additional material not seen in original broadcast, primarily due to time constraints. Laugh track removed. Reinstated opening titles, though they retain distinct video look rather than film-like treatment used in other episodes. Major addition in the ducts, where Lister recounts a childhood memory of a classmate named Squeaky Gibson whose bed squeaked uncontrollably, leading to a chaotic shoe-throwing incident that accidentally saved him from an epileptic fit. Also additional backstory of Kochanski's upbringing in cyber-school.

Unaired US Pilot 1 (Episode 119)

Runtime: 26 min

Overview: This was a failed attempt in 1992 to make an "Americanised" version of the hit British sci-fi comedy. Two pilots were filmed after the producers replaced the actors playing Rimmer and Cat, but the series was never picked up, even with the involvement of the original creators, Rob Grant and Doug Naylor. The story was an amalgam of several episodes but pretty much followed the original British pilot episode The End, except that Kryten is aboard the Red Dwarf from the start and the Cat is now a woman. The official Red Dwarf site (www.reddwarf.co.uk) has a complete article about the fate of Red Dwarf USA in their 'DownTime' section; and a documentary on the entire American experience is included on the Series V DVD.

Unaired US Pilot 2 (Episode 120)

Runtime: 15 min

Overview: The second and shorter attempt at a US pilot of Red Dwarf comes across as more of a promotional video than a pilot episode due to it's clips from the British version of the show. Features Terry Farrell as the Cat and script concepts from Backwards, Terrorform and Parallel Universe.
