h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

nevermind: poor joke!

right.

so what are you to into comedy wise apart from blackie
personally i like Alan Partridge, The thin blue line, the office, bottom, the young ones, dads army. as for the bestr for me its between blacckadder and partridge, maybe blackadder just edges it

I'm not a big fan of partridge. I prefer Seinfeld, Fawlty Towers, Yes Minister, the Drew CArey Show, Red Dwarf, and i think the best show of the last couple of years was Black books.

didn't see black books.

i also like red dwarf and fawlty towers. i'm not a fan of sienfeld, altho i havent seen much of it. i quite like frasier tho, which i spoze is quite similar.

i like 'knowing me knowing you' alan partridges chat show, but the best partridge is 'im alan partridge' where he lives in the linton travel tavern for 6 months. not to everyones taste though...

I don't like Alan Partridge: not my thing!

I've got really addicted to M*A*S*H recently though...

deary me!

I've never seen MASH on TV, although the film was good.

not my cup of tea i'm afraid!

this is a really stupid question, but how do u start a new topic?
i got onto this message board via http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/alabaster/A272567
but i cant seem to find a link to start a new topic

At the bottom of the entry, click the "Discuss This Entry" button.

i'm being really stupid now but i cant see it anywhere!

What skin are you using?

Goodbye is such a tearjerker but I think my all time favourite ep has to be Major Star from Goes Forth. Hugh Laurie in a dress and that whole Darling mix up, Who could beat it?

'I want to make you happy Darling. I want to make a nest for each of you ten tiny toes. I want to cover every inch of your gorgeous body in pepper and then sneeze all over you'

'Sir, I must protest!'

hehe

Egon, what do you mean what skin? sorry i'm not exactly an internet know it all.

I personally think major star is the worst episode for series 4, but its still good obviously. as u say goodbyeee is sad, and apart from that i think private plane is the best

'Darling?! thats sounds like a bit of a girls name. The last person i called 'Darling' was pregnant 20 seconds later'


emma what are your opinions on the other series?

what does the site design look like, in terms of colurs, design etc?

it says bbci at the top on a grey border, then it has h2g2 in green on another border, then in orange it has options such as 'Who's online' and 'Logout' but no sign of a 'discuss this entry'

as i said i got onto the message board from that link then i scrolled down to the bottom and clicked on a topic

it doesnt really matter tho, thanks for trying to help anyway

OK, so you're using alabaster, i've just had a look at the blackadder page in alabaster, and if you scroll down to the bottom of the article, below the footnotes, you should find the list of conversations about the entry? Just above them there should be an elongated green elipse on which it says "Discuss This Entry". Click that elongated green ellipse, and it should enable you to start a conversation.

thanks very much for pointing that out, i cant believe i didnt notice it! as you can see i'm not exactly a whizkid when it comes to computers!

thanks again

That's fine.

And what i meant by "skins" was the option users have (under preferences-one of the orange buttons bellow the grreen border for you) to choose different backgrounds.

cheers
