What started out as cult viewing, a chance taken on something entirely new, has become, in its own way, one of the most quoted, highly anticipated and arguably funniest comedies to have made it to television. The perfect blend is hard to attain, even harder to keep together but like Only Fools and Horses and Blackadder before it, has come to define the way an audience can keep a programme going beyond what seems its one and only joke and become part of the national psyche, identifying with the four valiant jokers in the pack and making Red Dwarf what it is today, a national treasure to which there is no comparison.
