{{quote|''Fundamentally, a ''[[Red Dwarf]]'' script is a battle plan for making a TV show, and as Napoleon Bonaparte once remarked "No battle plan ever survived contact with the enemy". In ''[[Red Dwarf]]'''s case the enemy is what's possible, given a tight budget, a short production period, and the physical laws of the natural universe.''
''The enemy is a prop that doesn't work. A guest star who can't say the word "soup". Another who can't say the word "phenomenon". Writing the stage direction "Beach in Paradise", and finding yourself on a wet winter day in Rhyll. The enemy is reality, and reality is, unfortunately, everywhere.''|'''Grant Naylor''', ''[[Red Dwarf]]: The Least Worst Scripts''}}
This covers a number of areas where real life circumstances alter the plot of an episode, e.g. the lack of suitable locations, timing when filming, the pregnancy of a lead actress (which happens a ''lot''). Occurs often in [[Professional Wrestling]].
