  • John Rimmer was the eldest brother of Arnold Rimmer and a high flying officer in the Space Corps. He stole Arnold's first girlfriend when a 17-year-old Arnold brought her home to meet the family on Io for the first time; Arnold discovered them together in the greenhouse. (Novel Better Than Life) There were 4 Rimmer brothers: John, Howard, Frank and Arnold. Their father was obsessed with getting them into the space corps and continually tested and cajoled his sons to that end. To ensure they met the height requirements, Mr. Rimmer used a traction table to stretch his sons (RD: Better Than Life). The three older brothers bullied Arnold fiercely, although he saw it as playful high jinks. Even when they placed a landmine in his sandpit, he laughed it off. During their "Three Musketeers" game, Arnold always had to play the Queen of Spain (RD: Polymorph). By the time Arnold was 7 years old, John had already become a test pilot in the Space Corps. This was what Mr and Mrs Rimmer wanted for Arnold as well. (RD: Dimension Jump).
