Red Dwarf's Slashiest Moments

I thought it would be fun to do a countdown on Tumblr with gifs of Red Dwarfs top 10 slashiest moments. I wanted to get peoples' opinions on what moments you think should be included, and what order they should go in. :)

I was thinking:

10. ?
9. ?
8. Observation Dome intimacy.
7. Lister & Ace's looks of adoration from Dimension Jump.
6. Rimmer sees Lister's packet in Bodyswap.
5. The near kiss from Better than Life.
4. Lister's hand on Rimmer's knee from Terrorform.
3. Ace & Bongo.
2. Low Rimmer
1. The kiss from Blue.

I got stuck after thinking of eight moments. I know there HAVE to be two more though. I didn't include Rimmer being stripped from Terrorform, or the naked bits from Pete: Part 2, because although they're lovely scenes to watch, they're not particularly slashy.

Any suggestions are welcome. :)

I don't know if I completely agree with #1. The scene itself yes, but the hug and the eye-flirting seem far more gut-punchy than the kiss itself.

I would echo this about Blue. Also, I'm not sure "Better Than Life" should be there - it just didn't strike slashy to me, but maybe that's because Rimmer was too busy being desperate not to have more children, LOL. But the others are good.

I have the same "problem", if you can call it that. There is a moment in the build-up where Lister subtly gives Rimmer the once-over which admittedly is sexier and should be included in the gifset if you see fit. ;)

Not to mention Rimmer's bashful eye-ducking through all that.
