Red 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 4 review: Mechocracy
With Mechocracy, Red Dwarf XII delivers a contender for the first bonafide classic episode of the Dave era.
Mark Harrison, Den Of Geek, 26th October 2017Mechocracy review
The best episode of the season so far - very funny but also very satisfying, with the gags flowing naturally from the storyline.
Dave Golder, Mym Buzz, 26th October 2017Red Dwarf XII proves ratings success
Red Dwarf XII has attracted, in all, 700,800 viewers according to official figures. That makes it the top rated non-public service broadcasted scripted show of its week. In fact, it was third overall amongst subscription service channels, trailing only two different football matches on Sky Sports.
Cult Box, 24th 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.
Mark Harrison, Den Of Geek, 20th October 2017TV Review: Red Dwarf XII Episode 2
Despite the many strengths of the comedic themes, the characters could have been fresher at times.
Simon Wiedemann, Howl Sanctuary, 20th October 2017Red Dwarf XII episode 1 review: Cured
In the opening episode of Red Dwarf's twelfth series, the crew encounter some of history's most infamous villains who have supposedly been cured of their evil.
Sophie Davies, Cult Box, 19th October 2017Red Dwarf Siliconia review
The episode doesn't truly capitalise on its main strength - Lister, Cat and Rimmer as mechanoids.
Dave Golder, Mym Buzz, 19th October 2017Red Dwarf XII - Siliconia review
When news about Red Dwarf XI first came through, the first image used to illustrate the series was from this episode: featuring a "Krytenised" crew.
Ian Wolf, On The Box, 19th October 2017Outfit from Spaced appears in Red Dwarf XII
For reasons we've been unable to fathom, Ziggy Bryson's (played by Extras star Jamie Chapman) outfit of a military inspired, bulbous pink dress with a plumed helmet to match will be recognisable to any diehard fans of Spaced - the cult classic sitcom from Simon Pegg & Jessica Hynes. Yes, it's none other than that of non-gender specific conceptual artist Vulva (David Walliams)!
