series is planned for R4 from 5th September. But they also say they "are not
aware of any TV repeats". Go figure.

The Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy TV series will be repeated
by the BBC
from Monday 30th July onwards, woohoo! There will also be an edition of
omnibus paying tribute to Douglas Adams.
^r$e I just bought the bu99ers on video.
No wonder Blackstar had them on special offer.
No That's because there's an DVD release of them circa October IIRC.
Anyone know if there's any differences between the two, i.e.
is it still
worth taping them still?
The video releases were (again IIRC) compilations of the 3 eps on
the tapes
so you're missing the beginning and end titles for the episodes (Though
fortunately "Arthur bruised his upper arm" is still intact as ep 3 is at
the end of the first tape)
I appologise to everyone if this sparks off another Pink Floyd and Adams
argument.
Pink Floyd are cut out of the Radio series. They were never in the TV
series unlike Douglas who appears twice.
A radio repeat would be nice.....
