Booklet Bound

The Extra Extra - by Andrew Ellard

3 October, 2003

As with the two previous releases, Red Dwarf III's DVD will come with a natty little collector's booklet detailing some of the making of the show as well as yet more pointlessly arcane trivia... sorry, essential RD information.

The format will come as no surprise, with the layout based entirely on that of the previous series. After a run-down of the bonus material, there's an overview of Series III's production. After that, there are page-per-episode articles on all six shows - Backwards, Marooned, Polymorph, Bodyswap, Timeslides and The Last Day. (Does anyone else wish that last episode was called Hudzen? It'd blow the ending, but at least the one-word-title theme would be consistent!)

The booklet was written after the completion of All Change - our in-depth documentary - so as to avoid repetition wherever possible, as well as include some nuggets of data that may not have made the final cut. After that, once again we have the Watch Out For... trivia section, the Classic Dwarf moments and the DVD chapter listings. (Which we'll also be announcing here very shortly.)

The booklet will once again be made available with the release in Regions 1, 2 and 4 - gently adjusted for American spelling and US and Oz Fan Club details.

More DVD Details will follow soon...

You can pre-order Series III now from the Red Dwarf Shop.
