Questions for Craig 5. 22/07/99

Q. From Daryl Ball. "Hi, can you tell me, have you any plans to do shows in the North of Ireland in the future and have you performed there before?"

CC. "I'd love to come, I've appeared on a live TV show over there, like PK Live, but never live on stage Daryl."

Q. From Billy. "Is this really THE Craig Charles or is this some online git who is bound for Hell for impersonating THE Craig Charles. Craig, if this IS you, I have to say what a big fan I am of yours and the whole Red Dwarf crew. Even over here in the States, we love you, man, I had no idea you did stand-up. Do you have a mail-out or anything to let fans know where you might be playing?."

CC. "Yes, Yes and Yes. Thanx Billy,,,next!"

Q. From Sandi Jones. "Hello Over There! I live in the US and get Red Dwarf on public television. The character of Lister is played so well by Mr Charles. I viewed the tour dates and they all seem to be in the UK. Any plans for a comedy tour in the US?"

CC. "Thanx Sandi, Yes we do have plans for the US, but no firm dates as of yet.;

Q. From Joe (from CA). "An American fan would like to know,,, Having seen the series on video, when will the next series VIII be available on video and if it is already, then I apologize for being as ignorant as a scutter in the cinema on a Saturday night."

CC. "Yes it will be available on video and no you are not ignorant Joe."

Q. From Ryan Behringer. "Hey, I just wanted to say that you kick ass and that you are mighty priviledged to be receiving an e-mail from an American. You British are quite funny and I have come to enjoy your sense of humor. Oh by the way, a British exchange student, Kevin Holmes, is living with me right now, do you know him? aha ha. He says that you are a scouser (whatever that means) and that Spurs are a better team!"

CC. "He's right, the Spurs syncronised swimming team are fabulous. Scousers don't tend to do it cause we think it's a bit girly. Ps If one syncronised swimmer drowns, do they all have to?"

Q. From Gavin Roberts. "A few years ago you worked on an episode of the Bill. What was it like, did you enjoy working with all the other actors, do you remember a strange man (my mum's friend's husband) coming up to you and asked you for an autograph for me? Do you intend to make guest apperances on other TV dramas after your tour?"

CC. "I enjoyed working on the Bill. I don't remember your Mum's friend's hubby (sorry) and I hope to do more drama."
