    Thank you for this! So tragic that we never got more completed from the genius, but i have never seen this particular show!

    Oh wow. I've not seen this before. For most of my life, my perspective on the world excluded ITV because of the adverts. If it had adverts, I averted my gaze. In this case to the extreme of not knowing there was even a thing to avoid. But now, in these days of digital spooling, and random uploads from the past, I can probe and explore this otherwise arcane life style in which I could have seen this programme decades ago.
    Why or even how did I find this piece of lost floating history? I have just finished reading, indeed performing the entire trilogy of five to my podcast "TortyTalks". A great sadness came over me as I removed my fluffs from the last paragraph. I needed more ! Hence my search on the, back then only partly imagined, global information system and here, or there it was - or is - much in the way my podcasts exist, but only if they are found and played.
    So, this is a thank you for giving me one more sup from the cup that still keeps giving. Bravo everyone !

    Superb programme. Great getting Jeff and Simon back. They look so young! The Dirk Gently skit makes me sad that all the adaptations never really included Adams sumptuous prose and masterful set pieces

      Ford here isn't played by Geoff, that's David Dixon actually! He portrayed Ford in the TV series.

      Oh this must have been released, the adverts and titles show that.

    At 32:57 it looks like Richard Dawkins is talking to an actual GIANT 😊

      Richard is, I am told, both a very nice man and very short.
