Hudson 10 the new and improved Kryten - Red Dwarf - BBC comedy

[@LarryLeeMoniz]

The cast became complete with the addition of Robert Llewellyn. His rendition of Kryten contributed (and still contributes) so much to Red Dwarf.

[@Fricasso79]

In a way, he usurped the role of Holly, who faded into the background and was gone by series 6. I guess there was only so much you could do with a face on a screen who couldn't interact with the environment. Rimmer had the same problem as a hologram, which is why he was eventually upgraded to hard light.

[@JnEricsonx]

Series 3 was where I first saw a episode of this, don't remember which one, it was almost 30 years ago.

[@normdeplume1178]

When this first aired in Canada, it was on a "youth" station, so all the obvious adult humor was edited out (also to make room for advertising), including that particular brick/dick joke. There was just wild applause and the pose, and we couldn't figure out why.

[@GiratinaofFury]

The traffic cone kind of makes sense, it's probably from the cargo deck and maybe used for forklift training (or whatever a 23rd Century mining ship uses as forklifts), but the suspenders and police helmet are still a mystery, unless one of the old crew was really kinky.

The groinal attachment demonstration was particularly impressive clearly a very wide range of appliances could be hooked up.

[@mantrapi1133]

Hudson's helmet is merely the troopers' helmet from doctor Who "Earthshock". I love how the BBC recycled props and costumes back then.

[@mbvideoselection]

They would have had to send it all the way to Manchester.

[@danieljob3184]

Agreed. When I saw the 'purple bellies' in Firefly dressed in Starship Troopers gear, it restored my faith in American Sci-Fi.

it's the policewomans helmet and the suspenders i don't understand

I used the traffic cone gag in a D&D campaign. It was 3.5e and someone was being initiated as a Drunken Master. I made sure they remembered that they were at least 100 miles away from the nearest paved road.

[@kalaong]

Traffic cones get used indoors all the time; wet floors, elevator shafts, vending machines under repair(Lister should know this - he is officially a chicken soup machine repairman - but QED hangover), etc. They should be *really* worried about the policewoman's helmet and suspenders, though; the only way those could be on board a spacecraft three million years in the future is if one of the crew had a fetish. In other words: *biohazard.*
