Recced because: It’s a Doctor Who/Red Dwarf crossover, pulled off to perfection and neatly filling in a large gap in the crossover show? Because, faced with the universe of the Dwarfers, a pregnant man, a hologram, and only a slim hope of getting home again (by means of technology that looks suspiciously as if it’s made of cardboard), Martha is as awesome as ever? And then there’s the should-have-seen-it-coming coda - and the Doctor’s reaction… (Definitely one of those stories where I had to check the calufrax tags at least six times to make sure no one else had recced it first. )
