Who is this Alligator man?

And why is he forcefully riding a flying alligator across the sky while dressed in gold? I suspect its from a movie? Which one?

He's Arnold Arnold Arnold Rimmer.
Without him, life would be much grimmer.

But, seriously, to echo previous answers, yeah, it's Ace Rimmer.

What episode is that? Or is it a special? I... um, er... may have seen each episode from seasons 1-8 more than once... but I don't remember ever seeing that.

It's from ... er ... shit, I think it's from episode in which Arnold becomes the next Ace Rimmer. "Stroke Me a Clipper" - season 7, episode 2.
