Rob Grant - What A Guy

Our tribute to Rob Grant, co-creator of Red Dwarf, who passed away on 25 February 2026. We talk about the impact of his work, the very prescient themes of his writing, and the time we met him to chat about this podcast. We also look forward to his forthcoming novel, Red Dwarf: Titan, which is available for pre-order now from all the places books are sold.

SO WHAT IS IT?
