SUMMARY
When Rimmer learns of
the mind-swapping procedure from Kryten he sees a chance
to spend some time in a real body for the first time in
three million years. But how will Lister feel about being
used as a time-share, particularly when Rimmer is hell
bent on abusing his body in every way imaginable?
CAPSULE REVIEW
Season Three just keeps
on turning out the classics. Rimmer's binges may be a tad
predictable, but they are very funny and Charles and
Barrie do sterling work mimicking each other's
characteristics and idiosyncracies.
