intergalatic gargleblaster ?
cause thats what the idiot presenting the BBC2 inside Hitchhikers show was on about.
it rather ruins the idea that this is a fan going on about the film rather than just another good-looking metrosexual muppet who's limited intellegence can only just cope with the four figure numbers conserned with his hair dresser bills and the only reading he does is the cocktail menu at his nearest swanky bar

Did you think for even one second that this was a fan? Just another young regional accent in slacks. Not very good at all.

Yup, I noticed that too.....shouted at the TV at the stupid annoying man! You'd think the post production bods would have noticed that 10 seconds after he said it, they showed a clip of Zaphod and Ford talking about the PANgalactic gargleblaster - that their silly presenter man was wrong! I decided to ignore everything he was saying and just pay attention to the clips and interviews.

To be fair, I do find Colin Murray possibly the most irritating man on the BBc- I turned the volume down for most of his links to avoid a fist-Tv convergence incident.

Good idea Egon - I had to resort to going into the kitchen to check on dinner and sneaking a peak round the door to see when it was safe to return to the living room!

What does he normally present? I've never heard of him, but I have to assume that someone so unsuited to the task can only be doing it through some other form of minor celebritydom.

Some of us unfortunate enough to actually have to work with them call them simply *Poodles*. High strung, over bred and yippy.

Now *that* was weird. I mean the symbols before and after your initials, the double version of which is interpreted by a *?* here...
