White Midget was the smallest of the various types of shuttlecraft aboard Red Dwarf, used primarily in the novels and only seen briefly in the television series. In the television series it is mentioned in the Series III episode Bodyswap, but not seen (this was actually a reference to the progenitor of Starbug that missed both a script re-write and editing), and the already-established Blue Midget is actually used instead in the broadcast episode.
