Red Dwarf actors

    Does anyone else find it really hard to watch the actors from Red Dwarf in anything else without thinking of their Red Dwarf characters? I was watching Blade 2 recently and once I figured out that one of the vampires was Danny John Jules, I couldn't take him seriously because all I could think of was the 'Tongue Tied' dream video sequence!!

    Robert Llewellyn hosting documentaries is funny as his mannerisms are still exactly like Kryten's.

    Robert Llewellyn dressed as Kryten would have been way more appropriate for presenting Scrap Heap Challenge :v:

    He's a Taxi driver who works for Steve McDonald, not sure of his character name!

    He presented Robot Wars aswell didn't he?

    Check out www.imdb.com for full filmographies.

    In corrie he is called Lloyd Mullaney. I also think he was in Dream team but its not on imdb.com. Weird...?

    Chris Barrie is he doing some Discovery Channel program on giant machines. Its very good actually he gets to drive some unreal machines:D


    Craig Charles is in Corrie:rolleyes: brings some great some fresh looks to "the street" if not his crappy handbreakinf skills or lack of.

    Robert Llewellyn didnt they start a new british scrap heap challenge recently?


    Danny John-Jules i really dont know. Last thing i remebmber is Blade II and a few crummy parts in movies but nothing of real notice. Anyone shed any light?

    As far as I remember he was just doing the voice of a puppet, I think it was one of those orangey red things which could remove its head

    lol! They aren't great actors to be fair, their hammy style suits Red Dwarf perfectly, gives it a lot of personality, but it's not really amazing acting or anything - Chris Barrie and Chloe Annet are the only ones who do a really sound job of acting in the entire thing IMO.

    Kryten is really suited to Scrapheap challenge though IMO, but Craig Charles always looks a bit wooden on Robot Wars, Jeremy Clarkson definitely did a better job of that, but I guess he's a bit expensive to hire these days...

    i thought Chloe Annet was ****e...but i had a crush on her


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 451 ✭✭Gross Halfwit


    Im sure we all remember Chris Barrie in Tomb Raider. Only good thing in the movie besides Angelina's "Jolies"...if you pick up what Im putting down?

    FYI, the guy who played Queeg also played one of those guys. Keep it under your hat though. :)
