Thank you! What a silly slip of the fingers

Although, now that Douglas Adams has been brought up, I think I should also recommend his lesser-known book, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, which I believe has some connection to Dr. Who.

And its sequel The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul.

And the very strange not-for-everybody-but-definitely-for-me TV adaptation.

Hah!! There's _two_ of us! ;-)

Okay, now I might actually try to make "that really cool jacket" from S2. (you know what I mean)

I really love that TV version. One of my favourite things on Netflix.

And I didn't think they could possibly follow up that first season with something equally weird without becoming repetitive, but they managed it.

Yes, the first Dirk Gentley novel was based off a cancelled Dr. Who project called Shada, which I believe was recently released as an animated special.

Douglas Adams actually wrote a few Dr. Who episodes.

Most everything in modern sci-fi is connected to either Hitchhikers or the doctor. Writers put jokes and references to them in nearly everything.
