Synopsis

In Studio Space Nobody Can Hear You Scream looks at the challenging logistics involved in making Red Dwarf. It features Craig Charles, Robert Llewellyn, Chris Barrie and Danny John-Jules, as well as co-creator and writer Doug Naylor, supporting cast, key crew members and celebrity fans Katy Brand, Nish Kumar and Nick Helm.

Danny John-Jules meets with costume designer Howard Burden for a nostalgic trip through hundreds of costumes worn by the Cat, and we learn how the models where originally designed and made. There are detailed insights into how explosive stunts went wrong, how skutters were the bane of everyone's life and how the cast and crew warn that if you want props to continue working, don't let Craig Charles anywhere near them.

Narrator David Tennant controversially referred to Back to Earth as Series IX. We can neither confirm nor refute this naming convention.
