Well the word is circulating at the moment that the RD movie could be filmed in Australia. Whether this will be the whole movie or just certain parts of it, I'm not sure... Still waiting for more news and updates on this. It'll apparently be filmed in Queensland though, if this is all true... Got this from the official site: Doug Naylor is currently in Australia investigating studio facilities and commencing preliminary design work for intended shooting in late September. The move may come as a surprise to those who expected a Shepperton shoot. "We had originally planned for Shepperton," Doug told reddwarf.co.uk, "but at the time we were told there were no studios available. We looked everywhere - Germany, Austria, Italy - and eventually Richard Taylor at Weta (Lord of the Rings) recommended Australia."
Ultimately, Doug has been pleased with how things have turned out. "We've been delighted by everything we've found out here. Australia's the sci-fi capital of the world right now. Star Wars, The Matrix, Farscape... It's the ideal place for Red Dwarf."This was from April 2003 I think, according to the updates on the site. For more info about the movie you can find it at www.reddwarf.co.uk(Way to promote the site, hehe )

I heard that they chose Oz over the UK because the British studios charge ridiculous amounts, since it's mostly big-budget fims that use the studios. Australia ia apparently cheaper.

I just hope it gets filmed period. By the way, that animated “Bad Boy” avatar is giving me a headache.
