I first heard it running every Saturday morning on Minnesota Public Radio. It has to be +17 years ago. More recently our upstate New York PR station was running it on Sunday evenings about a year ago. In addition to the 4 books, the The Radio Scripts were also published as a book. |

"primary phase, secondary phase..." are those difference episodes? I'd definitely be interested in negotiating with any member of the Mudcat masses who would like to help me out here... |

02 Sep 01 - 06:42 PM (#540448) Subject: RE: BS: Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy repeat From: The Walrus If I recall, the HHGTG was originally broadcast as two six part series, I presume that these are the two phases quoted. By the bye, did anyone else out there see the stage play? Walrus |
