[Quiet Man Cometh]

I like Red Dwarf though I haven't seen all of it. I wrote a short science fiction piece where the captain of the ship was a die hard Red Dwarf fan to where he got the tech geek to restore an ancient VCR so he could watch the show. Of course, I never said that outright in the story, just dropped hints here and there. ;) I jacked the canary metaphor I use from the episode when they are in some manner of prison and Lister signs them all up for some exploration team. I know about canaries in mines but as a metaphor it never occured to me until that particular episode.
