Red Dwarf

- Season 6

(1993)

200 years after investigating the Esperato, the Red Dwarf crew awakes from suspended animation. They set out to find Red Dwarf, which has vanished without a trace, on-board Starbug. They stumble upon an asteroid field containing lost spaceships, inhabited by 'Psirens' - genetic engineered alien creatures that telepathically lure the ship's crew Into the asteroids to suck out their brains.

Starbug is taken over by a tractor beam which takes them to a deep-space space station, where the crew discover 'Legion' a life form conceived from a experiment by famous scientists. They soon learn that Legion is composed from the minds of each member of the crew - and won't let them leave to continue the search for Red Dwarf.

Starbug stumbles upon a battleship carrying on-board murderous cyborgs called "Simulants". When the "Simulants" infect Starbug with a virus and Starbug heads on a collision course with a volcanic planet. Lister, Cat and Rimmer connect Kryten to a Artifical Reality game set and Lister, Cat and Rimmer enter Kryten's dream of the wild-west, as they set out to help Kryten to fight the virus.

Starbug is attacked by a Space Corp enforcement probe, for looting from derelict ships. Starbug crash lands on a Gelf moon, where Lister must marry the Gelf leader's daughter in exchange for a oxygen breathing unit. Only to find a Polymorph has gotten on-board Starbug, when Lister refuses to spend his honeymoon with the Gelf Bride.

The Starbug crew returns to the Simulant's battleship to salvage for food supplies. However Rimmer, who has been diagnosed with a tense nervous disorder, escapes on-board via a pod - which has no steering. He's then whisked away through a time-hole - only to find himself on a planet inhabited by clones of his own self.

Starbug enters a fog in space containing devices that create false realities, where the crew find a time machine, where they meet themselves 15 years in the future and engage in a space battle, when they learn their future selves are corrupt time travelers who are experiencing the very best of history.
