Lister and Rimmer end up on potato peeling duty whilst Kryten, Kochanski, Cat and Holly discover a time wand.
I struggled with this episode for the random nature of the plot and a lack of appreciation for the humour.
There are two stories threaded through this one that eventually come together in a conclusion that doesn't make me want to find out what happens next.
The humour for my own taste is very weak and the only positives I can take from it are some of Holly's one-liners that are for me the funniest part of the script and delivered with excellent timing from Norman Lovett. Everything else is pretty juvenile stuff that doesn't feel like it belongs in Red Dwarf.
All performances are about as good as they can be with the limited material.
As always I say that comedy is in the eye of the beholder, so others may find it a lot funnier than I did.
