This is really sad news, speaking as a red dwarf fan (hurry up with the new series dave!!) you have to admit his starbug crashes were epic.
He was a very talented man indeed. And model issues were his speciality - that's how he got started, dealing with awkward Thunderbirds that were causing a headache for the model makers! Red Dwarf X has completed studio taping so is in post production and is due to be broadcast in 2012.
