![]() ![]() Red Dwarf was originally shown on the BBC 2 station, although it is now shown on the "Dave" channel. Inspiration for Red Dwarf came from a number of sources, including The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the prison comedy Porridge, flat share comedy The Odd Couple, and the sci-fi films 2001: A Space Odyssey, Alien and Dark Star. Naylor and Grant came up with the idea for Red Dwarf in the real-life Aigburth Arms, which would also feature in the fictional stories. The duo had previously written for Spitting Image, and the origins of Red Dwarf were in a comedy science fiction radio sketch they wrote called Son of Cliché. Red Dwarf began as a television series sitcom in 1988 by Grant Naylor Productions ( Grant Naylor being a pseudonym of the writing team composed by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor). ![]()
