It's official! The hit 90's sci-fi comedy Red Dwarf is set to blast back onto UK screens, with all the original cast and a rather uncreative title.

Rimmer, Lister, Cat and Kryten are set to be reunited on screen for the first time since the end of the last series in a final two-parter, which, you guessed it, will see the crew return back to Planet Earth. The cast are set to film four episodes in total, all of which will be shown, probably in between reruns of Top Gear, on digital channel Dave over the Easter weekend.

Alongside the two-parter, the crew will also be filming two other, unbelievably creatively titled shows. Firstly, an improv. show which will see the cast try and cope with 'no sets, effects or autocue' called... Red Dwarf: Unplugged. Secondly, a behind the scenes look at all the new fancy technical production stuff they used in making 'Red Dwarf: Back to Earth' called, now wait for it.... 'Red Dwarf: the Making of Back to Earth'

I'm really looking forward to this, but surely they could've done a bit better with the naming of the shows....
