Be In Red Dwarf

UPDATE: Competition now closed.

8 September, 2015

Well, we told you something big was coming this week. And it's so big, we're not even going to tease you with any more preamble. Here's the headline: UKTV are running a competition for one lucky winner to get to be an extra in an upcoming episode of Red Dwarf.

That's right: not a hoax, not a dream, not an imaginary story. Just the chance for you, yes, YOU, to appear in an episode of Red Dwarf XI. Does it get much better than that? We'll give you a moment to compose yourself before we continue...

So, let's get down to the details. First and foremost, this is an incredibly limited time competition: you've only got until tomorrow (Wednesday 9th September) at 10am to enter. But how do you do so? Well, you'll need to head over to Twitter - and if you don't already have an account there, remember that you can sign up completely free - and specifically this tweet from the @Join_Dave account:

... all you've got to do, then, is retweet it. Seriously, that's it. Everybody who retweets that post between now and 10am tomorrow will be entered into the draw, and one lucky winner - and a friend - will get to be an extra. Crikey.

As ever with this sort of thing, of course, there are a few conditions: unfortunately, for all kinds of legal reasons, entrants must be aged 18 or over, and resident in the UK. The dates and location of the filming are still to be confirmed - further details will be relayed to the winner after the end of the competition. For a full list of terms and conditions, head on over to the UKTV website.

So, what are you waiting for? Will you be the one to get your name added to this...?

PLEASE NOTE: This competition is offered and operated by UKTV Media Limited, and not by Grant Naylor Productions Ltd. All queries concerning the competition should be addressed to UKTV as per the terms and conditions.
