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

No offense but if you re-read the chapter where Jamis gets killed, Paul dosen't marry Harah but is offered her, either as a bride or a servant. He chooses to have her as a servant.

I have got to agree with you about the inaccuracies mentioned in the intro to this site. My other observation is that it was Leto who was assigned to take his House to occupy Arrakis by Shaddam IV and not Paul.

If you are going to write a piece on something which fans will tear to shreds BBC then get a fan to write it. No offence.

It's true, a mistake was made on the editing of this article so that it reads that Harah and Paul married when in fact they did not - something which has been mentioned once or twice now, and will probably continue to be mentioned every so often...
In response to the comment "If you are going to write a piece on something which fans will tear to shreds BBC then get a fan to write it." I find it a little hurtful. First of all, I don't work for the BBC (although if they offered me a job I wouldn't refuse ) and I do consider myself to be a fan - a fan of the David Lynch film which is what the article is about - "Dune - The Film" is, afterall, the article's title. I confess I have only read the novel "Dune" 4 times, and when I wrote this article I had only read it twice. I also confess that I actually like both the new mini-series and the prequels (although I haven't bought the latest Butlerian Jihad novel yet) which a lot of fans disapprove of, but despite this "Dune" remains one of my favourite films.
