Douglas Adams Continuum (DAC)

Now online here, with audio & video trailers, an archive Radio 4 interview with Douglas from 1987 (upon the launch of the DG novel), photos of the new radio series cast, main character biogs, cast CVs, and a very entertaining production diary by Dirk Maggs.


(Mods - you might want to pin this one? )

A vast improvement on the last train wreck of an effort.


In my official capacity as a mod I could "pin" this thread, though in reality I haven't a clue how to.

Brilliant! Thank you, "the world's biggest fly on the wall"!!!





P.S.: Slight error on the episode guide, Episodes 2 and 3 have the same date listed. Can you forward that to the team, Kevin?

Blimey, well spotted, Stej, but it seems to have been fixed now.

Thank you for making it all sticky, Scratch.

I wonder if he's heard that before!

Any idea how to get the BBC site's DNA interview to play? The BBC use Relaplayer, but in this instance all it produces is a "General Error" with a broken link to a deleted page on the Realplayer site. It doesn't play at all.
