 Science Fiction Weekly Interview
Naylor: The movie is going to be a complete separate entity, and so you won't have to have any previous knowledge of the series.
Naylor: In a way, though, it could be easier [doing 22 episodes], because then you would have to get another guy, they would have to pay you decent money.
Naylor: I still rant when I seem some of those sets, when I see how raw some of it is. I always had a constant battle with the production designer, because everything he did was gray.

 Red Dwarf (science fiction series) - an introduction - Citizendium
Having initially resisted the idea of including a robot in the show, Grant was persuaded by Naylor to make Kryten, a sanitation droid, one of the central characters, in the process removing much responsibility for exposition from Holly - who was later written out for some years.
Just to prove that evolution is about adaptation rather than improvement, this product of three million years' development possesses an intelligence unrivalled amongst creatures who spend all their time preening themselves, looking in mirrors, and announcing how nice they look to thin air.
Now a slightly snobbish, upper-middle-class product of a public school education, Kochanski recoiled at the prospect of being trapped in another realm with what for her was an inferior version of her Dave, the one back in her reality having much better manners, a penchant for pasta and a working knowledge of opera arias (Ouroboros).

Grant and Naylor had been working together for many years but when Red Dwarf's sixth series had finished, there was no doubt in the fans' minds that series seven would soon be on its way.

 Garbage World - Future Echoes
Rob Grant and Doug Naylor had obviously done their homework, both in terms of science fact and the history of science fiction; they knew of Einstein's work, and they knew of some of the fiction that had preceded them.

In conclusion, the ending, with Lister photographing his future self, is sufficiently paradoxical to satisfy those who enjoy paradoxes and intriguing scientific puzzles, but also funny enough to keep the interest of others who might not be as interested in that sort of thing.
