You could say, it's my equivalent to The Full Monty! Or in other words,
you could call it: The Half Monty!
During 1998, I
set up a Red Dwarf Fanzine, which was known, as The Xanadu
Red Dwarf Fan Fiction and General Fan/Fiction Fanzine! And, my original aim, was, to publish short Science Fiction stories, and they could be Red Dwarf
related, Doctor Who related, Star Trek (all Star Trek series!) and the X Files!
I was also interested, in receiving horror stories, and anything of a comedic
nature, or even, original fiction, for my Xanadu Red
Dwarf Fan Fiction and General Fan/Fiction
Fanzine! For my very first, and last edition of my Xanadu Red Dwarf Fan Fiction and General Fan/Fiction
Fanzine, I sorted out a Kubla Khan poem by Samuel
Taylor Coleridge, for a bit of variation! But my original aim, where publishing
my Xanadu Red Dwarf Fan Fiction and General
Fan/Fiction Fanzine, was not to feature, any reviews of Red Dwarf, whatsoever!
Even though, I had insisted, on having an Editorial, for my Xanadu
Red Dwarf Fan Fiction and General Fan/Fiction Fanzine, which would, have
featured, some very brief news, about Red Dwarf, and general updates, where the
work of the cast, was concerned, which would have definitely been, outside Red
Dwarf itself, naturally! The Editorial, for my Xanadu
Red Dwarf Fan Fiction and General Fan/Fiction Fanzine, also included, some very
brief information, about myself, of course, which also
included, my Unofficial Xanadu Red Dwarf Website
address, naturally! And, my Editorial, for my Xanadu
Red Dwarf Fan Fiction and General Fan/Fiction Fanzine, basically informed, any
possible readers, what my Xanadu Red Dwarf Fan
Fiction and General Fan/Fiction Fanzine, was all about, at the time, of course!
And, my Editorial, for my Xanadu Red Dwarf Fan
Fiction and General Fan/Fiction Fanzine, also included the listings, of all, of
the Red Dwarf Fan Clubs, the various Red Dwarf Fanzines, the various Red Dwarf
Websites, and all, of the various, Red Dwarf organizations, that were about, at
the time! And, I also had a Contents section, in my Xanadu
Red Dwarf Fan Fiction and General Fan/Fiction Fanzine, naturally!
Unfortunately
however, I only managed, to sell one copy of my Xanadu
Red Dwarf Fan Fiction and General Fan/Fiction Fanzine, during the Winter of 1998! But I was fortunate enough, to receive my
first, and only piece of Red Dwarf, Fan Fiction, called: 'Pickled', by Rob
Burriss (who had, some of his Red Dwarf Fan Fiction
and various reviews, published, courtesy, of The Inquisitor Red Dwarf Fanzine,
in Northern Ireland, over the past couple of years!), and the story concept,
was by Pete Doyce (A very good friend of Rob Burriss’s, incidentally!). Incidentally, it was Rob Burriss who purchased, my one and
only copy of my Xanadu Red Dwarf Fan Fiction and
General Fan/Fiction Fanzine, in the first place! Incidentally, 'Pickled',
touched on Lister and Rimmer's life, before Red
Dwarf, which I found, to be very interesting indeed! And, touching, on the
characters of Red Dwarf’s lives, before they ended up, being stuck together, on
the Dwarf, for the rest of eternity, is not, a very common factor, where some
of the Red Dwarf Fan Fiction contributors, are concerned! And, I have still
got, my Editorial of my Xanadu Red Dwarf Fan Fiction
and General Fan/Fiction Fanzine, available, on file, in Microsoft Word format!
And, once again, I utterly refuse to give up hope, where publishing more
copies, of my Xanadu Red Dwarf Fan Fiction and
General Fan/Fiction Fanzine, are concerned, when it actually comes down to it,
at the end of the day! And therefore, we will just have to wait and see, just
exactly, what happens, where that is concerned, because when it comes down to
it, at the end of the day, that is all, that you can do, isn't it?!
Rob Burriss did set up, his very own Red Dwarf Fanzine, which
was called: "The Pickle Jar", during the year 2000, I think!
Unfortunately however, for various reasons: “The Pickle Jar”, never took off,
as a Fanzine, even though, Rob Burriss’s Website: The
Pickle Jar, carried on, as a Website, for a few years, after he had left
University, for a career, in the Royal Navy. There will be more information,
about that, on this Website, at a later date!
Anyway, without
any further delay, here is the link for Rob Burriss's
and Pete Doyce's Red Dwarf Fan Fiction:
I now have a
Red Dwarf image available, at long last! This image is a particular favourite of mine and my husband Paul's, because we love to
see Lister doing his Paint Duty or Punishment Detail, or even PD! Well
whatever, PD stands for, the image is now available on:

As, The Inquisitor Red
Dwarf Fanzine (which had, also been, known, as: N.I.R.D.A. - The Northern
Ireland Red Dwarf Association), had been so kind, to advertise my continual Red
Dwarf story for me, which so far, has only had six enquiries, but
unfortunately, no-one bought it, in the end! They had also been very kind to
publish my Red Dwarf VII Review, my Captain Butler Review, and they have also
published, some astronomical items from our Encarta 95 CD, for their: Junior
Encyclopedia of Space Section.
Unfortunately due to a loss
in sales, The Inquisitor Red Dwarf Fanzine, ceased publication, after the
Christmas 1998 edition, which was a great loss to the Fans of Red Dwarf, who
had subscribed, or had contributed, to the Former: The Inquisitor Fanzine, over
the years, and I will, in particular, miss all the reviews, on the cult and
Science Fiction series, that the Inquisitor featured, and I did feel, that this
was what made The Inquisitor unique, because of its additional, non Red Dwarf
related content. However, Daryl Ball, has since informed
me, that The Inquisitor will carry on, as a Website, so for all of those
Inquisitor Subscribers, who are online, the Inquisitor, is now available, as a
Website! Please refer to my Unofficial Xanadu Red
Dwarf Links Website, for more information, where that is concerned!
Thank you
Marie Birch
However, for the time
being, if it is of any help to The Inquisitor team, I have set up a piece that
Daryl wrote, about the day he spent with the cast of Red Dwarf on the 'Can't Smeg, Can't Cook' set, and ‘Red Dwarf Universe (as opposed
to University!!) Challenge’. I originally downloaded
this review in write format, but it has since been converted into html format.

And now, what
we have all been waiting for! here is my explanation of how the time drive, was
capable of getting the Boyz back to Earth, in Tikka To Ride, when it was specifically stated, in Out Of
Time, that the time drive, was only capable of taking the Boyz
back in time, in deep space, back to the Fifteenth century?!
Well here
is my Web link, for the explanation, so see how you go, where that is
concerned, anyhow!
I have also
reviewed some extended material from Red Dwarf itself, but I will go into that
in a bit more detail, when I am certain, that the Web link has been set up
properly. So please go to:

enough, to have the rare privilege of acquiring some tickets to see Red Dwarf
VIII recorded live, at Shepperton Studios on the 4th
of December 1998! It is an indepth review of just
exactly what goes on, when Red Dwarf is filmed live to a studio audience, and
for anyone who would like a further insight, into Red Dwarf VIII, the Web link

I am now in the process of reviewing Red Dwarf VIII itself. At the moment, the
Review is incomplete, but the Web link, is there merely to test the Web link:

Unfortunately
however, as the Red Dwarf VIII Review, is going to take me a considerably long
time to finish, and I have had to split it up into
three parts, and at the moment, there is only a snippet from Pete I, contained
in it. And until I can get round to sorting it out at a later date, and again,
the link is only being set up merely for test purposes, but for anybody who is
interested, the Web link is at:
