This is the most fabulous science fiction comedy ever produced by the BBC! If you like science fiction or even if you don´t then you will love the Hitch hikers guide to the galaxy. Based on the book and subsequent radio play by author Douglas Adams this is the most enthralling sci fi comedy you will see :)
It was good as a radio show, good as a TV serial, but it's even better in your own home, in your own time, on your own equipment. Great series. For my $ easily beats the movie remake… Although, for a quick fix. ;0)
A satirical look at the human condition from the point of view that the whole thing is meaningless anyway. Solid if understated performances using a tight laugh a minute script.
Bought this for my dad, he is overjoyed
Paddy Kingsland of Doctor Who fame does the incidental music, which reminds me of a Doctor Who episode of the 80's and a hilarious adaption of the book and BBC radio serial, especially hilarious are the Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy voice overs read superbly by Peter Jones
I did not know how well this series would age but it stands up very well. It could be a bit of nostalgia on my part but I thoroughly enjoyed watching it again.
Even better still there are extras to watch on the making. Douglas Adams created a masterpiece and this production brings it to life. Its way way better than the more recent movie!
I had forgotten how clever this was. Brilliant Ford Prefect (where is he now-) and other quirky characters from brilliant writer and ideas man. Very enjoyable…life, the universe and everything.
The cult following agrees – Yes the BBC original has an edge over the movie. Well worth the click it took to purchase it.
Only watched first couple of episodes, purchased on historical sentimentality, like original Dr Who's you have to put yourself back to that earlier time as so many things have changed since then. That said, still enjoying immensely and better than the remake.
My husband and I had so many laughs and it bought back so many memories. Thanks
Incredibly funny. Worth watching several times to get a number of sublte jokes. Highly recommended. Great extras as well.
This has to be one of the best online Coy's in NZ. From the tine I pressed the buy button to delivery only 36 hours elapsed.Service outstanding, Product as described, and postage very reasonable. Really recommended AAAA++++
Douglas Adams would have been proud to see this adaptation from book to BBC small screen. British humour has a subtlety all it's own. He'd turn in his grave with the American big screen version. Buy this 2-disc set…It's great :-)
