Series chronology

Red Dwarf I is the first series of the British science fiction sitcom Red Dwarf. It consisted of six episodes and was broadcast on UK television channel BBC2 between 15 February and 21 March 1988.

In the series slobbish technician Dave Lister (Craig Charles) becomes the only survivor of an accident on Red Dwarf, and the last survivor of the human race, three million years in the future; he is joined by a holographic reproduction of his dead bunkmate and boss, Arnold Rimmer (Chris Barrie), a sapient Cat (Danny John-Jules) who is a result of three million years' evolution, and the ship's computer Holly (Norman Lovett).
