"If there's anyone out there with 13 million, please give me a ring and I can put good use to it."
Check out this interview with Doug Naylor about his difficulties in getting the Red Dwarf movie made.
I have to wonder exactly why it's been so difficult. Wasn't Red Dwarf, for a time, the BBC's highest-rated series? When the movie was announced, not long after RD's 8th season, it was being touted as being Britain's biggest movie ever, with a budget of 22 million pounds. So why is Naylor now scrambling to try to get it made on 13 million?
In the interview, Naylor mentions setting up a PayPal site for fans to contribute. I'd do it. Wouldn't all you other Red Dwarf fans out there?
