Taking its name from the excellent biography, I would like to do a project paying tribute to Douglas Adams. I was thinking this could feature some of the rarely seen projects he was involved in. I have AVI files of "Hyperland," the "South Bank Show" episode about him and the "Doctor on the Go" episode written by him and Graham Chapman. I also have an AVI of his Letterman appearance to promote "So Long and Thanks for All the Fish."

Now this is a GREAT idea.
I think I have an off-air VHS recording of the South Bank show somewhere. I thought that did a great job. I remember being particularly excited that scenes from "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency" were dramatised. Such a shame no-one has attempted a full TV adaptation.
Mind you if Sky One can tackle Pratchett's "The Hogfather" then there's hope yet!!
