Some of my best memories of my childhood were discussing Red Dwarf episodes with my friends and reading the books. He was a very talented comedy writer.

Very sad news, loved the books and the series provided much entertainment to my friends and I in our heavy ‘wacky tabaccy’ age.

Very sad news. Red Dwarf was one of my favourite shows. Particularly the earlier series with the Temu quality props which added to the charm.

Rimmer world up there with the best comedic premises shown to audiences. RIP.

Outstanding show, and that’s saying something, the 80s and 90s were the golden age of British comedy shows.

Well that sucks. Wish he could re-emerge a few hours later with an H on the forehead, but sadly that’s for another world.

Golden age of British TV, comedy the story lines were amazing. Like others we used to quote the lines at school

A man who made many laugh. His work will outlive him many times over.

No! Heartbroken. Red Dwarf really shaped my love of sci-fi and comedy as a kid. This is awful news.

Don’t think of him as someone who’s dead. More of someone who’s no longer a threat to your marriages

Though I love Red Dwarf, Incompetence has to be the funniest thing I’ve ever read. He’ll be much missed.

Awful news
This man, along with Doug Naylor, created many happy memories for me, my family, and friends.
A lot of joy has left this world
See ya, Smeghead

Only just finished a rewatch, genuinely one of the best written shows I’ve ever had the pleasure of watching. Very sad news, huge talent lost.

Ah man he literally just announced a new prequel book – I hope it was actually finished and ready

He ran that show into the ground. Only seasons worth watching are the first three.
