I distinctly remember a scene with Kryten and Lister comforting each other over something and Kryten talking about how he lost his crew, and Lister saying "you killed them". Beginning of an early VII episode, I think. It did not sound like he killed them by mistake, but of course no details were given, so the book explanation can go (I have not read the books).
I can just hear it actually: "yes, I smegging well love him, but rest assured I will not be doing his dirty laundry, even it it means having you around!"

Oh, ja, that was Oroborous. "You killed the crew, Kryten! No wonder you ended up on your own! All right, it was an accident, but nevertheless..." I took that as being a bit of continuity with bookverse, where Kryten gave the computer a jolly good cleaning with lots of soap and water, and the ship crashed.

Oooh, that would be a lovely scene... Rimmer and Kryten hating each other so, but forced by necessity, one that comes down to Lister... and Lister, half annoyed that they just can't get along, half smug that they will pretend to anyway.

He doesn't say in the series it was an accident? As I remember it, he just says You killed them, and that is the punch line of the scene and no further explanation. You are sure you are not remembering that from the book? Or maybe I remember wrong, I will check it when I get home.
Write it! Just write it! Virtual cookies coming you way, or what ever you need for motivation :-)

Ja, check it - I'm pretty sure he says it was an accident in the TV show, but I could be wrong.

Hmm, maybe I will plot and scheme. But not right now - it's 3am where I am, and I'm going to bed. By myself, more's the pity.

he most defenetly said it was an accident. He would have been more disturbed by it if it wasn't, no?
