But I mentioned in one of the posts, and can't find it now

Vinvochi ship = starbug from Red Dwarf. Deliberate?

Bar scene with Jack looked like Star Wars...

I just wanted to give those views in amongst all the sadness....

I thought that as soon as I saw it. Maybe a reference to Red Dwarf? Maybe the producers/whoever are fans? Alternatively just a coincidence. But yeah, the resemblance is undeniable.

Im thinking it was one of those sort of nods that they seem to do, like all the Matrix and Star Wars stuff from the first part!

The long walk way at the beginning of Part 2, clear copy of the long walk way in the Death Star.

Many references to Sci-Fi shows/movies, however surprised people aren't going mad about the name of that coach company though.

That's the funny thing, didn't even note the colour, used to be a fan of Red Dwarf and when I saw what their ship looked like it just sort of clicked in my head "STARBUG!"

That made me smile!

If only Lister had been there, he'd have ripped Rassilon's nipples off!

Just RTD 'paying homage' again - treading the thin line that is plagiarism.......

I spotted that too!

My immediate thought was "Why are they flying around in Starbug?!!"



I was looking around to see which console Rimmer was hiding under.
