π₯NEW BONUS EPISODE!π₯ In this next instalment of our Tastemakers series Tim sits down with the Editor of Empire @nickdesemlyen.bsky.social to talk about the legacy and influence of the world's biggest movie magazine. Available wherever you get your podcasts.
Not a day goes by when I don't quote #RedDwarf in some way. But despite so many to choose from, the iconic line from the show that best sums up Rob Grant's legacy is obvious
"And the moral of the story is, "Appreciate what you've got", because basically, I'm fantastic."
#RIPRobGrant
Rob Grant is a painful one. Those first six series of Red Dwarf are a religious text for so many of us.

Any regular listener to the show knows that @liamhdempsey.bsky.social and @mattbrothers.bsky.social are even bigger Dwarfers than we are Trekkies so we are both truly gutted over todayβs sad news.
The Arrow release of this film was Liamβs Christmas gift to @mattbrothers.bsky.social last year for the express reason that the 2005 cut is the only way to watch this film!

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. We're in an old house with rich wood trims and various mahogany things and frosty windows and it's nightime. Data sits in a cozy chair, staring presumably at a fireplace. There's a orb/night light behind him in the background. He's wearing a robe & pajamas and a long night cap like the one Scrooge always wears in that holiday story about shitty healthcare and wealth inequity. Closed caption reads, "Humbug, I tell you."
I always love putting together our Christmas Special each year. The always in-person record with Matt+Paul often feels like where my Christmas starts, and this year it was lovely to have Eleanor with us too.
