This is not only the most complete account of the evolution of the Hitchhiker's Guide that I have ever seen, but the first youtube comment I have ever read with a footnote. Treat yourself to a Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster on me. And while the whole phenomenon shows the richness and fecundity of Adams's brilliance, I have to say that for me the original radio series is the Real Thing.
The radio programmes were better because so much more could be done with sound effects, the original cast (Steven Moore as Marvin was an accidental but serendipitous choice) and the listener's imagination than could be achieved - or at least afforded - by the cash-strapped BBC TV production.
@@sbraypaynt Yeah, chav dolphins are a big problem. We get 'em going through our bins at work regularly. And the 3 litre empty cider bottles they leave lying around is disgraceful.
The "Professional Thinkers" that didn't want the question revealed included psychiatrists. It was the Vogon captain's psychiatrist that urged him to destroy the Earth.
The animation sequences that show the actual "Hitchhiker's Guide" in the form a computer screen with graphics and flowing text, were produced frame-by-frame, by hand.
At the very beginning when they were in the pod, it was filmed in a tunnel, called Pinnock tunnel, that connects Par and Fowey docks in South Cornwall. I drove through there many times when I worked for the company that owned it. It's over a km in length. Just a little trivia for you!
I once heard that the BBC asked to have the lights in the tunnel shut off in order to film the sequence. However, it was determined that should the bulbs blow when power was restored, the cost (charge to the Beeb, of course) to replace them would vastly outweigh the incongruity of having the tubes reflect in the pod's canopy.
But Slartibartfast’s name is actually VERY important. After Arthur and Ford crash on an unknown planet after ending up on a Golgafrinchian colony ship, they explore the planet only to discover Slartibartfast’s signature on a Norwegian fjord, thereby confirming that they were not only on Earth, but had travelled back in time as well ...all exactly as planned by the supercomputer known as the Earth.
bob m I thought so initially as well, but the Earth had to factor in everything in the Universe, including the Golgafrinchians and every possible action they may take. As a matter of fact, I believe the Earth deliberately arranged for the Golgafrinchians to crash onto itself in a deliberate attempt to altar its own programming. The “ultimate question” here is, “why?” A friend of mine speculated that for any one person to ask the initial ultimate question and to receive an answer they could actually comprehend, would result in the end of existence. But the Earth needed to complete its assigned task and most likely didn’t want to be a doomsday machine, therefore it sabotaged itself. If the series had ever gone on, I believe Arthur was going to be the one to both ask the question AND receive an answer without destroying existence. Sadly, Douglas Adams’ passing made that very difficult.

Character 2: bloody hell, your arms been ripped off aren’t you in terrible pain? Character 1: yes but my foot itches. Character 2: your foot should be the least of your concerns! we need to stop you from bleeding out! someone get me medical supplies Character 1: forget my arm! I don’t need you to treat my wound! I need you to scratch my foot! Character 2: if I don’t stop the bleeding you’ll die. Character 1: Ill die of annoyance if you dont listen to me an itch my foot. Character 2: if it’s such a big deal why don’t you itch your foot with your other arm? Character 1: well I’m to lazy to do that.
first saw this miniseries on its first broadcast way back in 1981 when i was 10, broken down into 5 or 6 weekly episodes during the summer, each week i looked forward to every episode until the end. It took forever but i finally found a copy of it on DVD a few years ago by accident in a secondhand pawn shop and I've held onto it ever since.
It is a great series - I’ve read all six books of the trilogy. Many favourite scenes but I think for the best for me is the confrontation of Marvin and the robot Battle tank.
Slartibartfast: I must warn you, we're going to pass through, well, a sort of gateway thing. Arthur Dent: What? Slartibartfast: It may disturb you. It scares the willies out of me.
Man as funny as this is it also really has some interesting ways of thinking outside the box about the universe. I doubt that things actually work like they do in this series but there really could be so much in the universe weve never considered. I mean theres no way of knowing that earth isnt an experiment or something run by beings that can see and think in more dimensions than a human
@Corsham Viton Ugh go away. Doug Adams was a vocal atheist. The bible is a simple set of allegorical stories with questionable morality; a tool to control populations... how does it have nothing to do with man-made religion? Anyway I came here to say to the OP that you're pretty much describing the simulation hypothesis.
At 50 seconds there is an animation of Arnold Schwazenegger, in the middle of the 3 bodybuilders. On the right, I think, is Bill Pearl and on the left it could be Franco Columbo. And if you have ever watched the documentary 'Pumping Iron', you will know that Mike Katz definitely didn't know where his towel was!
No because Earth isn't actually that old in the HHGttG universe. It's only about 10M years old and is an artificial world built to be a chassis for the largest supercomputer ever devised. Everything about the planet, including continental drift and the backward extrapolation of it created by various human geologists are aspects in a huge non-linear self-modifying computer program intended to quantify what the 'ultimate question of life, the universe and everything' actually is. (The answer to said question, just for completeness, is '42' but that actually matters less than you might think.)
the series plus lots of extras is available on bluray WORTH IT!! It is BBC, who tend to throw stuff away!! even Dr Who! (they had to ask a a fan for a VHS copy when they needed it!!! :O )
@@noob94884There was no VHS when the lost Doctor Who serials were broadcast! Ones that have been recovered tend to turn up as 8mm film canisters in the lost-and-found room of a Nigerian train station, and suchlike.
Huh, only ever having seen the movie I'm actually surprised and impressed that they kept some of the kept tidbits from what I assume was in the original book. Such as explaining the gateway and scaring the willies out of the guide.
You need to look up ‘Tube Alloys’, Xz36. That’s the name the British and Canadians gave to their atom bomb project before the Manhattan Project even existed. It did the key research, including the discovery of the uranium chain reaction which made the bomb possible. Because British researchers were within attacking distance of the Germans, the Brits and Americans cut a deal for it all to move to New Mexico with both teams sharing all they had. (The Brits shared their knowledge and the Americans lied and didn’t, which pretty much summed up their respective attitudes towards saving the world from tyranny.)
If Dolphins were more intelligent than humans, how is it that they never figured out an effective means of communication with them? Lots of animals can figure that out with enough training.
I heard the part of the dolphin like 3 to 4 times but I still don't understand this, so the fish knew about the progress of human civilization? Meaning sports? And about an alien invasion? Was that the ship? Dolphins tried to warn human from the ship that will demolish them? And no dolphin is left? From where? And how did the narrator know if this if people stopped interpreting the dolphins singing? That's complitely science fiction, how can you take that as facts, vogans is from a very old comic book
