- Red Dwarf is an ongoing British comedy/science-fiction multimedia franchise that began as a television series sitcom in 1988 by Grant Naylor Productions (Grant Naylor being a pseudonym of the writing team composed by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor). The duo had previously written for Spitting Image, and the origins of Red Dwarf were in a comedy science fiction radio sketch they wrote called Son of Cliché. They came up with the idea for Red Dwarf in the real-life Aigburth Arms. An eleventh series, Series XI, was broadcast by Dave in 2016 and a twelfth series is set to air in 2017.
- The red dwarves play a part in the Price of Peace campaign, offering to build dragon golems for King Gavin Magnus. The first mention is in the scenario The Servant, where Solmyr notices a "wide-shouldered dwarf with fiery red hair" in King Magnus' throne room. Solmyr is then sent to find the Black Dragon Graveyard, so that the red dwarves can use their bones to construct dragon golems. Red dwarves likely have their own language, as the halfling spy Eddwil told Solmyr that when the red dwarves were speaking to one another, "they speak in some language in can't understand".
- Red Dwarf is a British sitcom series created by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor that ran on BBC Two between 1988 and 1999. The series does not involve an actual red dwarf, but a red Jupiter mining ship that, for unexplained reasons, is named Red Dwarf. The protagonist, Dave Lister, is the last human being in the universe. His companions are a humanoid cat, a borderline-senile computer, and a hologram of his dead bunkmate. None of this makes sense, but it doesn't matter because of just how good this series is.
- The main setting of the series is the eponymous mining spaceship Red Dwarf,[9] which is 6 miles (9.7 km) long, 5 miles (8.0 km) tall, and 4 miles (6.4 km) wide and is operated by the Jupiter Mining Corporation. In the first episode set sometime in the late 22nd century, an on-board radiation leak of cadmium II kills everyone except for low-ranking technician Dave Lister, who is in suspended animation at the time, and his pregnant cat, Frankenstein, who is safely sealed in the cargo hold.
- Red Dwarfs were generally cheerful, stout-hearted, and hopeful. Their anger was easily roused but short-lived; they were never sullen or vindictive. The best recorded example of this temperament is that of Trumpkin. There is no recorded instance of an evil Red Dwarf, although it is definitely possible that such instances occured. For more on the temperaments, skills, and history of Narnian Dwarfs in general, see Dwarf. In the 2008 film, Prince Caspian, except for Trumpkin, Red Dwarves were absent in the Telmarine Castle Night Raid, but they fought in the Second Battle of Beruna.
- The Consular-class cruiser Red Dwarf began its life as a diplomat's transport in the service of the Galactic Republic, but its later life grew increasingly dangerous after this relatively peaceful beginning. By the time of the Galactic Civil War, the ship had come under the ownership of a smuggler named Talus Krayth, who considered her retractable heavy weapons emplacements to be rather valuable in his line of work. After proving herself as a smuggler's personal ship, the Dwarf underwent her final metamorphosis.

| abstract | - Red Dwarf is an ongoing British comedy/science-fiction multimedia franchise that began as a television series sitcom in 1988 by Grant Naylor Productions (Grant Naylor being a pseudonym of the writing team composed by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor). The duo had previously written for Spitting Image, and the origins of Red Dwarf were in a comedy science fiction radio sketch they wrote called Son of Cliché. They came up with the idea for Red Dwarf in the real-life Aigburth Arms. Red Dwarf was originally shown on the BBC 2 station, now shown on the "Dave" channel. Ten series have been made (including the ninth which was a three-part mini-series to "reboot" the show), and numerous television specials, including numerous "smeg-ups compilations (or bloopers), Universe Challenge and Can't Smeg, Won't Smeg. The television series regularly racked up many millions of views. Two pilots were made for a new version of the show in the United States in 1992, but the American pilots were unsuccessful in getting an American series made. A project to get a live-action film underway stalled. Older series of the British television show were remastered in 1998. The franchise has branched out into different media, including four best-selling novels (Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers, Better Than Life, Last Human and Backwards), which take place in an alternate dimension to the television series. There are also toys, puppets and figurines of the ships and characters, a paper-based role-playing game, paper comics such as the Red Dwarf Smegazine, webcomics such as Prelude to Nanarchy and Scoop of the Century, and mobile episodes such as Red Christmas. Red Dwarf is about the adventures of slob Dave Lister, the only survivor of a disaster that killed the crew of the Jupiter Mining Company spaceship Red Dwarf. Lister, the lowest ranking crewmember of Red Dwarf, smuggled a pregnant cat, Frankenstein on board after shore leave on Titan. He was caught in possession of an illegal animal, but refused to surrender it to the ship's captain for dissection. As punishment he was sentenced to eighteen months in suspended animation. However, during this time, a radiation leak killed every living thing on board Red Dwarf except for Lister and his cat, who was safely stashed in the ship's vast cargo hold. After three million years, when the radiation finally faded into background levels, Lister was revived by the ship's artificial intelligence Holly to discover that he is the last human being alive, but he is not alone. Lister and his companions make up the regular characters of the show, the Boys from the Dwarf. As Lister makes his way back to Earth his only companions are Arnold Rimmer, a hologramatic representation of a dead shipmate, and The Cat, a member of a feline race that evolved from Lister's pet cat and who was, other than Lister, the only known remaining living being aboard the vessel. The crew of the Red Dwarf is later joined by Kryten, a mechanoid and Kristine Kochanski, a parallel universe version of Lister's dream woman. There was once an attempt to make an American version (two pilots were produced, neither of which sold a series) and three specials were created as the "Red Dwarf Night". There was also a magazine about and based on the series. The series was resurrected for three episodes by Dave as Red Dwarf: Back to Earth in 2009, as well as the creation of two making of documentaries and DVD and Blueray sets filled with special features. Doug Naylor and others involved in production have shown interest in creating a new series, and Craig Charles has confirmed that two new series are being produced, and that filming will begin in November 2011. On January 21, 2011 it was confirmed by Robert Llewellyn that a new series will be filmed in late 2011 to be broadcast in 2012 on the digital channel Dave. On April 15, 2011 both Doug Naylor and Dave officially announced that there would be a tenth series, Series X, which aired in 2012. An eleventh series, Series XI, was broadcast by Dave in 2016 and a twelfth series is set to air in 2017.

- Red Dwarfs were generally cheerful, stout-hearted, and hopeful. Their anger was easily roused but short-lived; they were never sullen or vindictive. The best recorded example of this temperament is that of Trumpkin. There is no recorded instance of an evil Red Dwarf, although it is definitely possible that such instances occured. For more on the temperaments, skills, and history of Narnian Dwarfs in general, see Dwarf. In the 2005 film, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Red Dwarves were first seen in Aslan's camp, where they were building their weapons, when the Pevensies and the Beavers arrive to meet Aslan for the first time. Red Dwarves later took place in the First Battle of Beruna. They were then seen at the coronation, where the Pevensies became the Kings and Queens of Narnia. In the 2008 film, Prince Caspian, except for Trumpkin, Red Dwarves were absent in the Telmarine Castle Night Raid, but they fought in the Second Battle of Beruna.
- The red dwarves play a part in the Price of Peace campaign, offering to build dragon golems for King Gavin Magnus. The first mention is in the scenario The Servant, where Solmyr notices a "wide-shouldered dwarf with fiery red hair" in King Magnus' throne room. Solmyr is then sent to find the Black Dragon Graveyard, so that the red dwarves can use their bones to construct dragon golems. The red dwarves are aggressive, rowdy, and quick to brawl, and after constructing fifty dragon golems for Gavin Magnus, their leader Koelox and another red dwarf had a disagreement that turned into a riot. They fought one another on dragon golems, destroying half the castle, and Koelox was killed. To get more use out of his allies, Gavin Magnus sent Solmyr to aquire the Rainbow Crystal, so that he could hypnotize and control the red dwarves. Once the Crystal was in his possession, however, Gavin Magnus realized that he could bring everlasting peace to the world by taking away everyone's free will, leaving himself as the immortal and all-powerful king of the world. It is unknown what happened to the red dwarves after the Crystal was destroyed. Red dwarves likely have their own language, as the halfling spy Eddwil told Solmyr that when the red dwarves were speaking to one another, "they speak in some language in can't understand".
- The main setting of the series is the eponymous mining spaceship Red Dwarf,[9] which is 6 miles (9.7 km) long, 5 miles (8.0 km) tall, and 4 miles (6.4 km) wide and is operated by the Jupiter Mining Corporation. In the first episode set sometime in the late 22nd century, an on-board radiation leak of cadmium II kills everyone except for low-ranking technician Dave Lister, who is in suspended animation at the time, and his pregnant cat, Frankenstein, who is safely sealed in the cargo hold. Following the accident, the ship's computer Holly keeps Lister in stasis until the background radiation dies down – a process that takes three million years. Lister therefore emerges as the last human being in the universe – but not alone on-board the ship. His former bunkmate and immediate superior Arnold Judas Rimmer is resurrected by Holly as a hologram to keep Lister sane. At the same time, a creature known only as Cat is the last member on board of Felis sapiens, a race of humanoid felines that evolved in the ship's hold from Lister's cat, Frankenstein, and her kittens during the 3 million years that Lister was in stasis.

- The Consular-class cruiser Red Dwarf began its life as a diplomat's transport in the service of the Galactic Republic, but its later life grew increasingly dangerous after this relatively peaceful beginning. It had originally been commissioned as the Plain Dealer, serving as transport for the Senator from an unspecified Outer Rim world (her original assignment documents had apparently been lost, and no one since had bothered to find out who the ship was meant to carry). The dawn of the Clone Wars brought an end to this role, and she was one of many Consular-class ships to be refit for more dangerous service in the Republic Navy, being armed with a twin turbolaser turret and a pair of proton torpedo launchers, all set in retractable emplacements so that the ship could appear unarmed in order to lure in pirates and Separatist raiders. She survived the galaxy-wide conflict (by the skin of her teeth in a few cases), and was later decommissioned as more powerful warships came into what became the Imperial service. Rather than being scrapped, the cruiser was stolen from a convoy heading for the wrecking yard and, after another refit to disguise her, became a smuggler's ship and was first called the Red Dwarf, after a star near to her owner's homeworld. By the time of the Galactic Civil War, the ship had come under the ownership of a smuggler named Talus Krayth, who considered her retractable heavy weapons emplacements to be rather valuable in his line of work. After proving herself as a smuggler's personal ship, the Dwarf underwent her final metamorphosis. After a disastrous run-in with an Imperial Customs frigate, Krayth was in it up to his neck: his ship was damned near wrecked and he was stuck playing hide-and-seek with the warship while trying to repair its hyperdrive. A lucky break showed up in the form of Wayland's Wilders, who appeared in-system for a raid on a small Imperial supply depot. They agreed to help bring the Red Dwarf to a safe port in exchange for joining up with the group. The necessary repairs were rather extensive, but the ship emerged as a powerful gunship; a later meeting with a similar customs frigate ended with the Dwarf barely being scratched in the process of blowing the frigate into interstellar dust. While the ship's retractable weapons mounts were sacrificed in the name of more total emplacements, she still carries a small element of surprise; even if an enemy's sensors managed to break through her ECM systems and get a good scan of the ship, most of them refused to believe that such a small ship really was as heavily armed as their readings said. The lucky ones lived long enough to learn.
- A red dwarf was a small, cool, very faint, main sequence dwarf star. The homeworld of Makull's species, an M-class planet, was located in a red dwarf system. USS Voyager discovered this system in the Delta Quadrant in 2371. (VOY: "Time and Again")
