Lister & Hilly on Lexx…?
Here’s the latest- can confirm through SFX.

Charles, Hayridge head for Toronto for US appearance
Red Dwarf stars Hattie Hayridge and Craig Charles are to be reunited in SF once more when they guest star in the forthcoming series of Lexx.
The duo, both regulars on the stand-up comedy circuit, will play husband and wife prison guards in an episode of Lexx’s fourth season, due to shoot in Toronto next week.
A spokesman for Hattie told SFX Network today: “She and Craig will play a married couple, two pervy prison wardens in the episode.
“It’ll be a chance for two stars of Red Dwarf to be reunited again.”
Hayridge played supercomputer Holly in series 3 – 5 of Red Dwarf opposide Charles’ slobbish Lister. The episode of Lexx, currently entering its third season on Channel 5 in the UK, will likely be broadcast sometime next year.

Anyway, that’s all I’ve got, so far.
Btw, I do think that Nigel Bennett is as well-known as ever-dear Listy and Hilly. Forever Knight *was* a decent series, and he’s been in quite a few TV movies, to boot. I think he won a Gemini, but I don’t know for what year… At any rate, Prince is a perfect role for him- he’s priceless.
But this IS the Dwarf Forum, so I’ll stop waxing poetic about Lexx actors… [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/wink.gif[/img]
