30 Days of Telly Meme - Day 20
Day 20 - Favorite kiss
I realised that I had no idea how to answer this one. I tried to think about TV couples where you had to wait forever for a kiss, and then... (but, frankly, I refuse to put down Harry and Ruth's one kiss, because the pair of them were turning purple from the cold). So, I, um, went for what is probably the most memorable and very likely one of the funniest kisses ever instead, because, why be sensible?
Now, I bet no-one was expecting that... (The clip is from the DVD extras, so lots of comments from all involved. And - just to warn the squeamish - there is an extended sequence...). But, seriously, after all those years of locked up bickering, what do you expect? Plus, it's Lister's fantasy, which is highly amusing. I mean, we'd hardly have been surprised at anything from Rimmer. And of course, behind the scenes, the writers had kept threatening the two actors in question that if they kept counting which of them got the most on-screen kisses, they would make them kiss each other... And so they did.
If I ever, while watching something, come across the sensible answer to this question, I shall tell you. :-)
