Ummm, I don't remember Adams doing anything for Dr Who. Hitchhikers is
very different and essential viewing/reading/listening for Americans
wanting to get into English culture. If you like Red Dwarf, you'll love
Hitchhikers.
BTW. Adams is a famous Macintosh user. It has been said that he wouldn't
have written such great books with a PC. :-)

Ohh, a bit tenous. I kind of remember an MGB in the first TV series,
though.
