THE boys from the Dwarf are back with a brand new series of pleasingly juvenile sci-fi comedy hi-jinks.

Lister (Craig Charles), Rimmer (Chris Barrie), Cat (Danny John-Jules) and Kryten (Robert Llewellyn) are now on their third round of space-based misadventures on Dave, which plucked Red Dwarf off the sci-fi scrapheap in 2009 – a decade after the BBC jettisoned the long-running cult favourite from its schedules.

With a 12th series now also 'in the can', Dwarfers have never had it so good – especially as they can actually watch the very first episode of Red Dwarf XI online right now via UKTV Play.

In Twentica, the Red Dwarf crew find themselves in an alternative version of America where modern technology has been prohibited – thus making Rimmer (a hologram) and Kryten (an android) illegal.

The boys infiltrate the tech-savvy underground in an attempt to bring down the authoritarian regime, with predictably amusing results.
