Lister


played by: Craig Charles

first appearance: "The End" (1988)

planet of origin: Earth


Dave Lister is the last remaining human and works as a third-class technician upon Red Dwarf where Rimmer is his supervisor which he utterly hates. He became the last human on the ship due to being frozen whilst there was a radiation leak, which wiped out all of the other crew members. He was frozen because he was caught having Frankenstein on board. Lister would always be seen having a curry and drinking larger on the ship, which were two of his favourite things. Lister developed feelings for his fellow passenger aboard Red Dwarf Kochanski. However this was short-lived due to her being killed because of the radiation leak. Lister would mostly be seen wearing his leather jacket and deerstalker hat. He is also very lazy and would often not feel motivated to do anything than just to sit down and listen to his favourite band Rastability Skank.
