SMEG! Its Red Dwarf !

Wombats are of course familiar with Red Dwarf, the ever so popular UK Sci-Fi comedy, so we were excited to be going to the Red Dwarf Convention in Birmingham. A quick read of Robert Llewellyn's book made sure our Red Dwarf knowledge was tickety-boo before enjoying the convention atmosphere










Over 350 attendees packed into the convention hall to see their Red Dwarf stars on stage. First was Hattie Hayridge (HOLLY).












Who entertained the crowd with the Question and Answer section.













Then Robert Llewellyn took to the stage and later Chris Barrie.













Mr Chris Barrie (RIMMER) looks as excited to be holding a wombat!












And Robert Llewellyn (KRYTEN) was clearly overwhelmed by meeting such a famous marsupial.













And Danny John-Jules (CAT) was delighted to have me perch on his shoulder, but seemed worried that I may be a Polymorph (I am not of course).

Tomorrow I hope to meet Craig Charles (LISTER) and Hattie so that they too can enjoy the company of the travelling wombat.

Smoke me a Kipper, I'll be back for breakfast...... !
