Craig just on 6music as I type talking about this clip. Thought I'd try and dig it out and YT delivered as usual!

[@ThorntonValiant]

I was listening to that. Really interesting guy. The 2024 poem was great.

'Me and the cat we're gonna have a baby cat and where gonna have a farm on Fiji and we're gonna have a sheep and a cow and breed horses'

[@thefinalhashiraangrysag415]

Brilliant poem, wow

Amazing

5 years before Series 1 of Red Dwarf.

[@josephilsley3028]

I can see that's how Craig comes up with his rhyming couplets at the end of each episode of Robot Wars. I wonder if he's ever been asked to think up an extensive poem describing the show in a nutshell?

[@percyvolnar8010]

Craigs poetry kept it 100 !

[@alluurpo]

I love him in red dwarf, but i cant watch this 😂😂

[@97channel]

Against the fact of mathematics, I swear that Craig Charles should not have been as old as this in 1983.

[@jerryna4517]

Wow! Awesome...

A cellphone is just a radio and a computer that converts your input into 1's and zeroes, and then broadcasts them over radio waves. Your data isn't always encrypted. Someone with the right kind of radio can listen to your cellphone calls. Just a plain, simple radio, not even connected to any complicated computer. What a time to be alive when people know almost nothing about the technology they use for most of their life.

First time I saw Craig Charles on the telly was as a performance poet. You don't see this art form on tv now, unless you count rap!

[@durkeldwakanda1778]

That type of rap died in the army 2000s when rappers like puff daddy andJay z started making rap about money,clubs and big bottled hoees

[@kellyjust-kelly1334]

Ommmmmm Ommmmmm

[@soloist9495]

50 secs he's got what a robot got he can make his body pop early hip hop reference

Must be one of his first appearances.
