The sketches were written by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor, and were performed by Chris Barrie, Nick Maloney and Nick Wilton.

The series was a follow-up to Grant and Naylor's 1981 series Cliché.

Key to her plan is the arranging of a romance between their daughter, Matilda (Sheridan Smith - Two Pints), and Thane Redwald (Alistair McGowan), with an eye to marriage.

Red Dwarf' co-creator Rob Grant provides the script for this sitcom set on the cusp of a new Millennium - 999 A.D.!

Captain Butler is a British sitcom starring Craig Charles as Butler, the captain of a motley crew of pirates which included Roger Griffiths, Shaun Curry, Lewis Rae and Sanjeev Bhaskar.

Created by John Smith and Rob Sprackling, the series ran for only six episodes on Channel 4 during 1997.

Its theme tune was the Sex Pistols version of "Friggin' In The Riggin'" (with minor variations by the actors within the series).

I, Lovett was perhaps the most keenly awaited of the pilots, created by Norman Lovett after departure from Red Dwarf. It is a charming and whimsical show for which the word ‘offbeat’ could have been invented, depicting Lovett as an eccentric inventor who lived with a talking dog and talking painting of a horse, and lived in constant fear of reprisals from the fly community over his treatment of their brethren.

The pilot show was an instant hit, though it wasn’t until 1993 that a series appeared, by now frustratingly tainted by uneccessary toilet humour but still a hugely enjoyable show.

I, Lovett is remembered with enormous fondness and its failure to appear on DVD is a mystery. Thank Smeg For DVD247. :-)

This is not just the dream sequence from the show, but a specially shot 20 minute piece plus a making of section.
