# Gotta love the fact he died in a health spa
Very Adams really. Kinda like the fact the best and last Dr Who episodes he ever wrote never got shown.

# Yep, the very same
Shada was fun. There's a luke-warm radio recreation of it with Paul Megane you can get on bbc.co.uk but it's not great.

# ...'Mostly Harmless' was published in 1992...

# Noooo...
You're thinking of "The Salmon of Doubt". The 5th book was "Mostly Harmless".

# no i'm not, i just got confused
I was talking about the film

# Adams didn't write any of the film
He just oversaw the early scripts and ideas as far as I'm aware. (Well, there were of course the directly ripped-from-the-book/radio bits but you get the idea.)
