Red Dwarf XII episode 3 review: Timewave
Ironically this episode about criticism is attracting a lot of the stuff. It's for good reason though, because 'Timewave' is regrettably a confusing mess.
Sophie Davies, Cult Box, 27th October 2017Red Dwarf XII - Timewave review
How apt that an episode themed on the subject of criticism should end up being not all that great.
Ian Wolf, On The Box, 26th October 2017Red Dwarf XII episode 3 review: Timewave
We'd go so far as to say it's the worst since the Dave era began with Back To Earth.
