[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

The Red Dwarf crew find a starship buried in an astro-glacier, and consequently encounter a zombie who used to be a member of RD, but left when the ship was at Titan. Lister gets infected with an intelligent virus and promptly fails to convince it not to kill him. Kochanski has a solution that is better than death, but comes at a high price.
