Paul Foxcroft is both a comedian and a renowned dungeon master. His experience leading epic fantasy games is perfect prep for exploring the lore of Red Dwarf’s feline civilisation. Interrogating series 1 episode 4, Waiting For God, we learn why Paul thinks Cat is a psycho. Why a book made of scents is a bad idea. And why it’s more cost effective to land on lava planets than water planets. 

As always, no stones are left unturned - from hardcore from boardgame wargames, to Paul’s super cheerful theory of the true motivation behind Lister’s ‘back to Earth’ plan. We also discover that Mac McDonald (Captain Hollister) has been in everything. Everything.
