    Cliff Barry (Lissard, Brother Strange & Raptor) has appeared in Red Dwarf I have no idea who he played in it.

    He played a guard who had an eye mssing once, if I find futher info on this I'll let you know.

    Mark Knight has also featured in The Bill, and don't forget some of the Knightmare cast (predominently series 5 & 6) featured in another Broadsword production called Timebusters.

      As a long time fan of both Red Dwarf and Knightmare, I couldn't help reading this post. Just so you know Clifford Barry had a small part in Red Dwarf series 8 (Krytie TV), as prison guard. The person Zagor mentioned, the one eyed prison warden was played by someone called Graham McTavish.

      Also as you said earlier, David Verry played a prisoner nicknamed 'Big Meat' who did a big scene with the Cat. (Series 8 - Only the good...) Cat tries to get Big Meat to beat him up so he'll be hospitalised (don't ask!) but it goes the other way.

      Hope this helps you,

      Emz

        As many people already know Cliff Barry appears on Red Dwarf Season 8 episode Krytie TV.

        The following URL is a screen grab for those who've not seen the episode. I've only guessed that this is him as he's the only guard on the episode with a speaking part & credited.

          Didn't know he appeared on red dwarf! He looks quite different as a human rather than a lizard! Wow, much surprise-ness.

                      I was looking out for him not long ago, uncontrolably shouting "WEHEEEEEYYYYYYYY" when I found him, i can't seem to snap out of it either

                        I liked raptor when he laughed at the bone humourous joke thing.

                        To start with, I got the impression he was laughing because it was pathetic but it was a magic joke, right.

                        Oh and I like the miremen- original! and I liked the music that went with them!

                          "Miremen - original" could give werthers originals a run for their money!

                          Just imagine it

                          "A soft squidgy scaley texture with a hint of fishyness"

                          Lissard would love them!

                            Nah- I meant that the Miremen were an original idea- silly!!!

                            They bring quite a different atmosphere to the goblinses!!

                                      Just thought I would not that our dear green faced (and apparently fish breathed) friend Clifford Barry was on todays edition of 'Doctors' (BBC1) playing a police officer. Nice to see one of our KM Klan still getting some work! The show seems a haven for usually stage-bound actors, we may see a few other KMers pop up on there.

                                      Thanks to Fury for luring me toward the television this afternoon!

                                        A couple of Cliff Barry-related things that I've exhumed from my archives but never actually shared before.

                                        Publicity still of Lissard - from Cliff's own website. I don't think I've seen this one before.

                                        Cliff in Red Dwarf - from the episode Krytie TV. Forester actually took this shot, but it's been lurking around on my HD for ages. Finally got around to uploading it.

                                        CITV advert (1993) - 14 MB, .mpg format, but worth a download. A nostalgic advert for the most popular shows on CITV at the time, with a quick special intro by Lissard saying "you can't beat it."

                                          Last week I interviewed Cliff for the 25th anniversary documentary. Sorry it's taken me this long since to notify everyone, have been exceptionally occupied elsewhere in the past week. Also the interview was another short-notice planned arrangement with only a couple of days to spare beforehand so I couldn't really openly invite forum questions.

                                          However, in case you don't know, Cliff will be premiering his one-man show "You All Know Me - I'm Jack Ruby" next month at The Mill Theatre in Banbury (November 8th). More information and tickets can be found by clicking here.
