Duct Soup 10/10 - Wonderful, wonderful episode, it really goes into characterisation mode and not a spare second of script is wasted. We find out more about some of the characters in this episode than we did in the last 6 seasons! Kochanski's childhood, the rusty gate, Lister's claustrophobia, squeeky Gibson, Kryten's jealousy and even Cat's mild sociopathy! Plus Kryten's star wars joke about Kochanski's attire is funny but not as funny as Kochanski's complaints about men (because they're good observations) and them watching her knickers spin dry!
Blue 9/10 - The remember that Rimmer guy episode, but it's much more memorable for two things: that kiss and that song. The comet scene at the start is ok because it leads to Cat's preening gag and has the potato salad line too. The Rimmer Experience is just wet you knickers hilarious and the song is just outstandingly brilliant. The show only loses a point because of the medibay scene that somehow just seems to exist to perpetuate kryten's jealousy of Kochanski.
Beyond A Joke 8/10 - The big Kryten episode, yet there's far too much focus on the Gelfs and simulants that pull focus from Kryten and his green brother Abel. The T72 tank joke is brilliant and Jane Austin World is a great idea although Lister dressed as a priest is just bizarre! Despite its flaws and occasionally corny line the story is enjoyable and fun. Scuttling thing ala monkey wrench should be on every menu too.
