   I suppose the fact they got 26+ episodes and 7 whole series out of a   
   single idea must be applauded - week after week they came up with stuff.   
   The fact that there are so few duff episodes is a miracle. Only a few   
   Oirish episodes in the Holodeck!   
      
   Even if _say_ Red Dwarf had a budget that big could they have got   
   hundred of episodes?   
      
   Look at Dr Who.
