Watched the 1981 BBC version of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy this evening … which I literally haven’t seen since I was a boy.

Still entertaining, and rather briskly paced.

The budget, in seemingly typical fashion for many BBC productions at this time, could be guessed to be in the hundreds of pounds… total… and it shows on screen. 😂

Here in the States, if you were looking for big-budget sci-fi spectaculars… yeah, you weren’t going to find them on PBS, which is where this program aired originally.

If you were looking for good writing, direction, and interesting ideas… you knew that imported programs like these would deliver.

(And still do.)
