ⓘ About Grant Naylor
Grant Naylor is the writing team of Doug Naylor and Rob Grant, who are best known as the authors of the “Red Dwarf” series of novels. They came to their name by combining their last names into one easy to remember one. Naylor and Grant have often called themselves a gestalt entity or something of a Legion. In the author notes for their novels, they enlarge on the joke by saying that they have separate wives for tax purposes. Their collective form has also been caricatured to Nan’t Greylar. The two authors began writing together during the 1980s. They were responsible for writing “Cliché” and “Son of Cliché” for BBC Radio 4. They also worked together on TV programs such as “The Ten Percenters,” “Spitting Image” and several Jasper Carrott projects.
