Hitchhikers Guide Lives
Yay BBC! It's about time they did something cool with these timeless works of the late, great Douglas Adams.
Production is under way on the Tertiary Phase of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, with episodes due to begin airing on Radio 4 in spring 2004.
As we reported in September, independent company Above the Title have the rights to adapt Douglas Adams' novels for radio. It's now become clear that three of the Hitchhikers' novels are indeed getting their first radio adaptation.
A six-part adaptation of Life, the Universe and Everything will be up first in the spring. This will be followed towards the end of 2004 by an eight-week serialisation combining So Long and Thanks for All the Fish with Mostly Harmless.
