So yeah, we missed talking about the filming dates of two new series, both the online and broadcast launch of Red Dwarf XI starting with "Twentica", and the online release of the latest episode "Samsara". But we are here now. Yay for us! A major thanks to all of our contributors who were more on the ball than us and have helped keep things rolling in spite of our absence.

In order to help drum up some more listeners and feedback (through some shameless self-promotion), the admins would like to invite you to check out a free contentRed Dwarf-inspired web audio comedy of our own devising called Space Rover. Please tell us what you think! Technopeasant (talk) 23:22, June 18, 2013 (UTC)
The DVD and Blu-ray releases of Series X should now be available in Region 2. The official Red Dwarf website lists several services where the disks can be purchased by British fans, so get grabbing people! Australian and NZ fans need to wait until December 12 (although the series is currently playing on broadcaster ABC), while us in Region 1 will have to wait to get the series on disk in January.

The final episode of Series X, "The Beginning", has aired on Dave. Now, anyone who does not see fit to try and improve the episode article will face the ultimate challenge: a duel across time and space! Please? Roland The Headless Thompson Gunner (talk) 04:44, November 9, 2012 (UTC)
Now, I could be wrong about this, but I think that the fourth episode of Series X, "Entangled", has aired on Dave. Once again, any outside contributions would be appreciated, assuming you can keep your facts straight. Roland The Headless Thompson Gunner (talk) 02:17, October 26, 2012 (UTC)
Perhaps I should pay more attention, but anyhow - Series X has been filming and all that good stuff. Look into it, either from the official source, the somewhat unofficial source or from the soulless propagandists who work in the mainstreampress! I just read everything I should have read over six weeks in two hours and my head hurts! And my hope swells. Also, see the new set picture! Technopeasant 09:42, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

Pre-production has begun for Series X, with filming over the next three months - and broadcast next September. Although about a year is a long time to wait, we will now be inundated with the plethora of rumours, speculation and japery of modern digital age television production. See the good folks at Ganymede & Titan for all of that, or if you wish to stay to the straight and narrow get your fix at the official Red Dwarf website! Technopeasant 05:58, November 5, 2011 (UTC)
