The TV show was my first exposure to Douglas Adams' work. I've since read the
books (all 5 of the trilogy:) and would *love* to see a film.

That's Billy Connoly's wife, (can't remember her name) IRL.
She quiet a good comedien.

I heard that DA sold the rights to a film studio, and the *idiots* sat on it!
DA has since bought the rights back, and is planning to make a film. When, I
don't know.
The funny thing is, he was said on a radio show, that he would never have done
a film back in the early 80s because the SFX just weren't up to the job.
He said that only now would he think of creating a film...
Love & Life,
G.
