After 12 great years of service with the Space Corps, Rimmer has earned four medals to recognize his, er, long service to the company. In those 12 years, he has yet to attain the rank of officer, despite his repeated attempts to pass the officer's exam. "..Possibly has more teeth than brain cells" is a good description of Rimmer, who could lose an argument with a dead squirrel. |

For those of you with a Latex fettish, Kryten's the man for you. Well, not really a man, Kryten is the most intelligent being on the ship. His ability to quote Space Corps Directives is probably his greatest ability though, for where he's gifted in brains, he's lacking in wit. |

| "Cool"est character on the show, Cat is the last of the cat-race which evolved from Lister's pet Frankenstein. Constantly in search of Sex, and always full of himself (gee, sounds like every other cat I know) Cat always has a different way of doing things we all take for granted. |  |

She came aboard Red Dwarf in the early episodes of series 7, a dimensional tear caused two dimensions to join, she was left stranded over in the wrong dimension. Used to be with Lister but was dumped for a chef. A very fine addition to the Red Dwarf team and I will look forward to seeing series 8. |
