RE: Off Topic: Red Dwarf

Yup, I'm also a Robot Wars fan as well. You cant beat a good bit of wholesome mechanic violence!! Some of the things they build are weird and many time wonderful!! Sir Kill-A-Lot has to be the most awesome robot built!

The black guys name is Craig Charles, and yeah it is Lister..

I still watch the red dwarf episodes on BBC2 and while I was in Spain for 3 months, i was able to see it on BBC Prime by satelite.

I don't know all the persons by heart but i love the black guy who also presents robot-wars ( another great program by the BBC ), it's david lister i think.

any robot-wars fans in here? ;)
