I have just watched on Sky Arts, Douglas Adams: The Man who imagined the future.
It was a really interesting programme, he was was really clever with such a innovative mind, what I did not know was that he co-authored a book with Graham Chapman of Monty Python and a surprising amount of other notable people who were in his circle. I met him once at a book signing in London.

I watched it, as well, and immediately thought of his influence on a young Terry Pratchett. Great program.

Went to watch the recording of 'Sorry, I Haven't a Clue' for BBC Radio last night at the Brighton Dome. Great fun with Jack Dee hosting, and teams consisting of Marcus Brigstock with Rachael Paris up against the Reverend Richard Coles and Tony Hawkes (the comedian, not the skateboarder). A very enjoyable evening, and very funny.

They started at 7:30 and finished just after 10:15, with a 20-minute intermission and a few retakes at the end. The recorded two episodes, with the first due to be aired 8th June. It'll be interesting to hear the final edit and compare to the live experience.

Okay, so, as mentioned in my review thread, I've finally finished the first season of Hazbin Hotel, after having obtained the Blu-Ray. And I have to admit, I enjoyed it thoroughly. A dark comedy set in Hell with musical numbers galore wouldn't normally sound like my bag, but hey, it's actually a pretty damn good series. I dunno if the second season will ever come out on Blu-Ray, but if it does, I'm going for it.

While I posted the trailer in the 'What Made You Smile Today' thread, I'll repost it here. Warning, there's swearing galore, violence, and more than innuendo...

I've seen a couple of episodes of Hazbin Hotel that were randomly in my suggestions from Youtube. Thry were pretty good.
