To those who don't know, Rob Grant - one of Red Dwarf's two main writers - passed away recently on the 25th February. He had co-written every episode of Red Dwarf for the first six series. Rob had also worked on Spitting Image in the 80s and had written several Red Dwarf novels, including one that is set to be released on July of this year. Look out for Red Dwarf: Titan.

Rest in peace you genius! It's better to have loved and lost, than to have listened to an album by Olivia Newton-John

    I still remember the "Grant/Naylor" logo after each episode.

    His main reason however, he said, was that he "wished to have more on his 'tombstone' than Red Dwarf on its own".

    It's cold outside
