At The Captain's Table Captain Hollister was killed off in Red Dwarf's first episode - but that didn't stop him making a comeback in season VIII. Mr Flibble stops for coffee with the man who threw the Dwarfers into the brig - Mac McDonald... |

We don't go out as a family. The back story is that we're not related to each other at all. So you've got me, huge me. And then you've got Jessey, who's medium size, and then little Naomi. And I tell people that tonight they can help us celebrate 40 years of singing together. "Let me take you back in time to the Ed Sullivan show in 1959."
And they were part of a folk trio called "Peter, Paul and Mary", but they were sick of wearing fake goatees and moustaches. And I was Little Richard's make up man. And they found out that Little Richard had a fabulous anti-aging cream, so they told me if I'd steal this cream, they would take me into the act and teach me how to sing. And so I did it, and I gave them this anti-aging cream and they've been using it ever since - but they won't share it with me. So I look like this, 60yr old schlub, and they look, you know, beautiful.
Then we can go from 1959 up 'til today, doing Why do Fools Fall In Love to Ghetto Superstar. And, they really kick ass.
