“Lister gazed out of the porthole and his facial muscles accessed the programme: ‘No One Home’ – He began to catalogue the series of disasters that had led him to this point in Time and Space.  He started to list the bad decisions, the poor career choices, the unreliable friendships that had led him here – to a prison ship bound for the most inhospitable penal colony in the outer reaches of the Cosmos.  He’d never expected much from life.  All he’d ever really wanted was to be a soft-metal guitar icon, thrashing out rock anthems all night to half a million fanatical hero-worshippers.  Was that really too much to ask – to be mobbed nightly h=by hordes of emotionally unstable women who would all feel compelled to smear his body with a wide range of dairy products and then remove said dairy products in a variety of interesting ways?
