Red Dwarf's Starbug and Lister spotted on Coronation Street

As you may, or may not know, Craig Charles (Lister) has been acting on the UK soap Coronation Street as a taxi driver called Lloyd.

Then the news hit that Red Dwarf was coming back this Easter (can't wait).

Now these photos of Craig Charles (complete with Lister's dreads apparantly being abducted by the rest of the boys from the Dwarf have turned up. Then there is the Starbug 1 car.

Also spotted during filming was Craig's Corrie co-star Simon Gregson, who plays Streetcars co-owner Steve McDonald along with returning Red Dwarf favourites Chris Barrie as hologram Arnold Rimmer and Robert Llewellyn as Kryten

What can it all mean? Is it a crossover between soap and sci-fi? Has Lloyd been Lister all along or is it just a good bit of advertising?
