The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy: (Epsiode 1 (Part 1)

Radio Version.

This is our loving tribute to the genius of Douglas Adams.

The scifi group is composed of a few guys (and girls) who meet up to record sci-fi audio plays. It's amazing what you can do with a few people, some microphones and a laptop.

Please leave a comment if you enjoy them!

We are a very non-commercial organisation

Episode 1 "The End of the World as we Know it": Arthur Dent has never been any good at Thursdays. On this particular Thursday he learns that his home is to be demolished, his best friend is from a small planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse and on no account allow a Vogon to read poetry to you...

Best wishes,

Hi allthisfuss. We modified (slightly) the original radio scripts and read them into the microphone with no live sound effects and with half the cast missing! Still it works rather well I think.

Douglas Adams was the greatest person ever to have lived.

The question to the answer is on page 42 of the book

It's somewhat suprising that this series worked so well in audio form. he has such an unusual roundabout way of saying things, uses a lot of big and/or fake words, and plays a few verbal tricks every now and then. He also has absurdly long sentenes that bounce around through different topics. You also have to get through a good bit of all that to arrive at a joke sometimes. In short, it seems like most audiences wouldn't be able to keep up, certainly not well enough to laugh.

i really love the story but i think the "actors" or whatever theyre called are somewhat cold emotionless...

i mean his house will be destroyed and hes got a voice like hes sleeping every second^^

they just read it out without "feeling" the persons charakteristics so im giving a dislike for the version not for uploading or the story those two things are niicce, only first criteria i dont like

I wish there was a Stephen Fry recording. His voice makes me feel relaxed and cheery.
