Frank Todhunter was an officer of the Jupiter Mining Corporation, or JMC. Todhunter's final posting was that of the Second Officer aboard the JMC freighter spaceship Red Dwarf, under the authority of Captain Frank Hollister and Executive Officer Carol Brown. Todhunter was apparently in charge of the personnel and/or human resources during the final voyage of Red Dwarf. Todhunter died in the radiation leak which killed the crew of Red Dwarf, all except for Lister, who was in suspended animation at the time. (Television series pilot episode)
