Template:Infobox Red Dwarf episode

"Krytie TV" is the fifth episode of Red Dwarf VIII and the 49th in the series run. It was first shown in the UK on 18 Mar 1999 in the 9:00pm BBC2 time slot,[1] Written by Doug Naylor & Paul Alexander and directed by Ed Bye.

Synopsis

After Kryten reveals he showers with the female inmates (having been classed as a woman when he arrived on Red Dwarf due to his lack of external — or indeed any — genitals), he is knocked out and reprogrammed by the less scrupulous members of the Tank and duly starts up his own pay-TV venture, Krytie TV, and the star of its first show, 'Women's Shower Night', is none other than Kristine Kochanski. Meanwhile, Lister gets his guitar back, minus strings and in the same post is notification of an appeal against his circumstances which if successful will apply to all other prisoners in his situation.

Production

Originally titled "No Strings Attached" and revolving around Lister's guitar strings, this was later changed to "Krytie TV". The episode turned out to be a problematic production.[2]

Chloe Annett fell ill during the making of the episode and the scene scheduling had to be re-organised. With minor adjustments the episode was completed. [3]

With Kryten having been defaulted to his factory settings, posh English accent and all, it was considered that David Ross could make a return. In the end Robert Llewellyn impersonated the accent.[3]

Guest stars included Graham McTavish as Governor Ackerman, Jake Wood as Kill Crazy, Mark Caven as Man in Film, Sarah Wateridge as Woman in Film, Clifford Barry as Guard.
