How many works of fiction can you name that are equally as famous as a book, radio play and TV show although not so much as a movie? I can name one, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy which I've featured here on Wyrd Britain a few times but today I thought it about time we stopped and turned the spotlight on it's creator, Douglas Adams.
Made just a few months after his death in May 2001 this episode of the BBC arts show Omnibus is a celebration of Adams' life and work. With contributions from a wide variety of his friends and colleagues such as Terry Jones, Stephen Fry, Richard Dawkins and many more it is an affectionate homage to the man and his ideas.
