    A cult Series of books by Douglas Adams, and it was adapted for BBC TV in 1980/81 and was never repeated!(A first over here in the UK).

    That show was awesome. And with DrWho type special effects that the BBC was putting out at the time really added to the effect.

    In light of Douglas Adams untimely passing, I thought this topic may be in need of rejuvenation.

    there is one last DA book coming out. I read about it at Sci-fi.com From what I understand, it's like 90% complete and someone else will finish it, but it's his first book since Mostly Harmless and obviously will be his last. Douglas, you are seriously missed.
