Explaining the Dwarf...

I'm not sure how I managed it, but I seem to have gotten the kids into Red Dwarf. I was just breezing through the extras, outtakes and documentaries as a wee background entertainment whilst folding washing or tidying the bedrooms and the kids have slowly gone from slight interest to asking for full episodes.

Trying to explain the back story was a bit of a trek, especially the origin of the cat.
