Backwards (lick backwards is kcil and kcil can sorta sound like kill)is the fourth Red Dwarf novel. It is set on the fictional backwards universe version of Earth. The novel was written by Rob Grant on his own. It follows on directly from the second Grant Naylor novel, Better Than Life, ignoring Last Human which was by Doug Naylor. As well as Backwards it contains elements of the episodes Dimension Jump and Gunmen of the Apocalypse. Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow. The Red Dwarf crew have traveled to this version of Earth to bury Lister, who has died in his sixties due to time dilation, here so he can come to life and be age backwards (youth) to 25. They also brought Kristine Kochanski's ashes and resurrected her so they could have a relationship backwards, but by this time she and Lister have been 'unintroduced'. The crew arrives on Earth in the newly built Starbug. They go to the sovenir shop in Niagara Falls to meet up with Lister. Kryten watches the news and discovers that Lister and the Cat are involved in a murder. Lister misses the rendezvous point. They leave the shop and see Lister being chased backwards by policemen and suffering a savage backwards kick to his groin. Lister immediately recovers and gives chase. Kryten convinces Rimmer that no harm can befall them as they are in a backwards universe. They catch up with Lister and are being chased backwards by police then are 'un-shot' at by a hillbilly. They see this hillbilly 'unweeping' earlier on that day.

A day (symbol: d) is a unit of time equivalent to 24 hours. It is not an SI unit but it is accepted for use with SI. The SI unit of time is the second. The term comes from the Old English dg, with similar terms common in all other Indo-European languages, such as dies in Latin and dive in Sanskrit.
