Red Dwarf: The Promised Land review
Feature-length versions of sitcoms have, at best, a chequered history. But given that Red Dwarf has always had epic ambitions that defy its shoestring budget, scaling up the story to fill 90 minutes - plus adverts - is less of a stretch than most. Even so, the Promised Land story is surprisingly underdeveloped, and scenes intended to supply emotional heft feel forced, as if they have been added out of expectation that's what a film version should do.
