First heard about it as a LP that was rerecorded by the cast, it was excellent so recorded the radio series when it was repeated, read the books(very good) saw the tv show(okay, but nowhere near the audio version) saw the film(weakest of the lot, losing the whole 'British' vibe), I think if you read the books and listen to the radio series you get pretty much what Adams had to say, now just off to make a cup of tea... hope no one minds if I pull this plug out to plug in the kettle...
