Danny John-Jules confirmed that the show was going to be happening but it was dependent upon when creator Doug Naylor would be able to write it.

In a recent interview at the EM Con, the 55-year-old actor was asked about reports of a live show.

Danny explained: “That’s a reality that there is a live show being thrashed out in Doug’s head at the moment.

“But we are all up for it [and] have agreed to do it if Doug finally has the time to write it because at the moment he is post-producing 12 episodes of Red Dwarf, which takes three times as long as an ordinary show because of various effects.”
