16 Best Guest Stars In Red Dwarf

6. Tony Hawks - Talkie Toaster (And Others)

NIRVANAH CRANE 2
BBC

No, not the pro-skater, that’s someone different. This is Tony Hawks, the unofficial fifth Dwarfer. He’s incredibly revered by cast colleagues and his voice is almost indelibly marked on the early series.

To say he had a few roles is an understatement. He was the voice of many of the sentient machines. Most notable amongst them was the talkie toaster (“I toast therefore I am”). That reminds me, does anyone want some toast?

Tony wasn’t just a voice specialist; he appeared in front of the camera in the Backwards episode as the compere, and as the host of Better than Life. A notable guest who almost shouldn’t qualify as a guest due to his multiple appearances.
