Red Dwarf - Backdrop

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.
