Remembering, and really feeling that bit from Douglas Adam's "Life The Universe and Everything" :

He had just had a wonderful idea about how to cope... ... He stood up straight and looked the world squarely in the fields and hills. To add weight to his words he stuck the rabbit bone in his hair. He spread his arms out wide.

‘I will go mad!’ he announced.

‘Good idea,’ said Ford Prefect....

I am still incandescently angry at how utterly Belgium the Hitchhiker's Movie was, 21 years later.

I blame Disney - who apparently still have the rights. With Doctor Who it's like they want to ruin all British sci-fi or something?

Glad Red Dwarf never sold out to them.
