Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which fingernail did Lister start trimming when he woke up?

Answer: right pinky

He had been in deep sleep for 200 years, and his fingernails were about four inches long.

2. Who played Kochanski in 'Psirens'?

Answer: C P Grogan

The psiren attemped to lure Lister outside by reading his mind, and pretending to be Kochanski. Were it not for Rimmer and Kryten, it would have worked. Anita Dobson also appeared in this episode as one of Kochanski's shipmates and Jenny Agutter played Professor Mamet, Kryten's creator.

3. How does the psiren deal with Kryten?

Answer: It crushes him in the waste compactor

Pretending to be his creator, Professor Mamet, it orders Kryten to get into the waste compactor, and activate the machinery. Kryten, resembling a huge novelty dice, admits that he is 'almost annoyed'.

4. What does Kryten serve Lister for his lunch?

Answer: a space weevil

Lister didn't even notice - he thought it was crunchy king prawn. Just goes to show what you can do with a space weevil.

5. Why won't Lister let Kryten sacrifice himself?

Answer: because he's not doing his own smeggin' ironing.

. . . at least, that's what he said.

6. What should not be done with Mamosian anti-matter chopsticks?

Answer: they should not touch

Rimmer, newly fitted with a hard-light drive, got the worst of it when the crew were unable to control their chopsticks. Covered in food, he then asked Legion whether the stains on Lister's long-johns were off-putting.

7. How did Lister and the Cat pretend to be 'Vindalooian' people on the video link to the simulant ship?

Answer: They each put one of Kryten's eyes on their chins

It worked until one of the simulants appeared on Starbug, and saw what they were doing.

8. Which of the crew became Dangerous Dan McGrew?

Answer: Rimmer

Cat was the gun-slinging Riviera Kid, Lister was Brett Riverboat, knife thrower, and Kryten was the sheriff. Rimmer, our resident coward, was Dangerous Dan, barefist fighter.

9. What was the name of Lister's Gelf bride?

Answer: Hackhackhack Ach Hachhachach

She was played by a man - Steven Wickham - the costume was such that it wouldn't have made much of a difference either way. TV chef Ainsley Harriott played Lister's father-in-law in this episode.

10. Two previous characters turned up in 'Emohawk - Polymorph II'. Who were they?

Answer: Duane Dibbley and Ace Rimmer

The emohawk was to blame, but the joke was on him, as Ace was a more worthy adversary than Rimmer would have been.

11. Kryten advises Rimmer on a programme of relaxation, and a regular grinding of what?

Answer: Chinese worry balls

When he is rescued from Rimmerworld after 557 years, the worry balls have turned into worry marbles.

12. Why is the Cat so concerned about meeting the simulants again?

Answer: he's wearing the same outfit as last time they met.

Clothes maketh the man?

13. Who was Derek Custer?

Answer: Lister

After 557 years in prison, Rimmer's memory was not what it used to be and he could not fully recall the names of his crew mates. Cat was Kit, and Kryten was Titan.

14. What does Lister do with the chocolate fingers?

Answer: makes a log cabin

This was during the time that the unreality pocket convinced the crew that Lister was a series 3000 android. This meant that Kryten outranked him, being a series 4000 android.

15. Which member of the crew saves the day by destroying the time-drive?

Answer: Rimmer

Lister, Cat and Kryten are killed one after the other, and then Rimmer realises that the only hope they have is to destroy the time-drive. The final scene is of Starbug exploding, and the words 'To Be Continued' coming on screen, all set for series 7.
