Douglas Noel ADAMSYes, our own DNA has lived in Essex for a while and went to school there...
On top of his famous HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy and among other things, he also wrote City of Death as well as The Pirate Planet and Shada (the latter was unfortunately never completed) for the TV series Doctor Who, which lead was played by another Essex celebrity; Tom Baker himself.
