I don't know how many decades it's been, but it's great to see Arthur and Ford again. It's a fantastic series, thankyou!!! 🐴

A wise old man once told me in the mirror,
" Some believe what they want to believe, others believe what they have been told to believe. But the wise believe what they see before them".
I argued with him that not everything we see may be reality, it could be just our own perception.
Then I realised I had smoked way to much weed, and was talking with my own reflection...

The universe is a blank canvas of atoms, until a conscious mind starts painting a picture on it.
R.I.P Douglas Adams, you helped paint a better universe for so many, as you remain in the thoughts of so many...

[NoosaHeads]

I wish i could go back in time, when Douglas Adams was still alive. The world suddenly became that little less pleasant and meaningful when he died. A great loss to humanity. A great loss to the universe.

Reading all those books for the First Time was a truly wonderful experience
The original TV Series and The Records were so brilliantly done.

Very cleverly edited, The electric monk from Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective agency was written 10 years after HHGTTG. I don't know how you did it, but well done it brought back fun memories. Pretty deep too. There does not seem to be any humour like this anymore. Thank you.

I’ve never seen either of these, and I just finished watching the original BBC series. I loved this. Thank you! I’ve always wanted more with the tv cast. I appreciate the editing to put this together. ❤

this guy's the kind of hoopy frood who knows where his towel's at

[latheofheaven]

Accidently stumbled on the first radio broadcast of the Hitchhiker's guide one evening - Prostetnic Vogan Jeltz was reading his poetry. I've been a huge fan ever since. I even bought a limited first edition of the H2H2 towel - and I know exactly where it is right now! RIP Douglas, you are missed.

Wha?? This is *fantastic*! THANK YOU FOR POSTING IT!

[BrundleFly]

Is it just my memory playing tricks, or is that The Liberator from Blake's 7 in the opening shot...?

[blxtothis]

Superb!

The original radio series (still got the BBC Boxed set of cassettes) was amazing but the TV adaptation captured it superbly. The animations of the Guide Book stand up, as pure brilliance even today, the whole was produce by hand using a studio Grant Machine to expose each individual frame, the good old fashioned way, nary a computer in sight in those days.

I was just a kid when the series first popped up on Radio4.

Listened to it with my dad - it blew my mind. I loved Marvin most of all. I remember one quote... "Marvin! Are we glad to see you!?"

"I doubt it."

Fond memories. The series set me up perfectly for the sci-fi quirkiness within the pages of 2000AD.

Thank you DA.

[markkneill-boxley]

Brilliant thank you! From hiding under the covers pretending to be asleep listening to the first broadcast by chance through every recording, broadcast, and book, this fantastic story keeps on giving!

[DoorwayToNightmare]

Brilliant peace of editing!!! GOOD SHOW!!! I suppose I'm the only one of 7 people who have enjoyed the ENTIRE series (well, except for the movie). THIS WAS A GREAT "LOST" EPISODE! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

[MargaretUK]

Arthur: I wonder if I left the gas on
Also Arthur - has an electric cooker
This was great 👍 Thank you 😊

[paulbennett]

This is utterly brilliant! I just wish there were more like this.

[gutsngorrrr]

I first came across hitchhikers guide to the galaxy as the radio show and loved it, so when it came out in TV I couldn't wait and as we didn't have a video recorder, I recorded all the audio on to reel to reel tape and then listened to it over and over again.

[PaulR]

Bloody Huge fan of THHGTTG since I discovered it in 1985.... Well done (applauds)

[garethbond]

I love HH. it’s still a part of my day to day life.
Haven’t seen this before.
Thanks for the content.
Fantastically wonderful.

[____uncompetative]
