Craig Charles: Lister

Quotes 

• Lister : Pree! All JMC vessels undertake to return crew to Earth, including their dependents, right?

  Pree : You resigned, former crewman. There's no way back.

  Lister : I didn't resign... my dad did, we share the same name.

  Pree : Then you'd be on file and you're not.

  Lister : Did you check the medi-bay waiting list? Isn't there a file open - David Lister, medical pending?

  Pree : Yes.

  Lister : Isn't it true once I complete my medical and I have all my bios for stasis I become registered crew.

  Pree : Yes.

  Lister : [growing increasingly frantic]  And as registered crew, do I have the power to shut you down?

  Pree : Yes.

  Lister : And as your primary objective is to save registered crew members time and energy, shouldn't you just uninstall yourself now!

  Pree : Your logic is faultless.

  [Pree shuts down] 

• Pree : Since the JMC is no longer obligated to supply you with oxygen, your free supply will end in 8 minutes and counting.

  Lister : Oooh, I really need oxygen, it's really important to me lifestyle!

• Lister : Rimmer's right, I've never been a proper father. I never encouraged ya... . gave you advice, kicked your big fat butt when it needed kickin'. Maybe that's why you've ended up like this!

  Lister Jr. : Like what?

  Lister : You're a big, big disappointment to me David. You really are.

  Lister Jr. : What?

  Lister : No ambition. Sittin' about. Wastin' your life away! And you're not lookin' after yourself. And you drink too much!
