If they get to making the fourth Hitchhiker book into a movie, who better to play Wonko the Sane than David Bowie himself?! Oh I do hope they keep making movies after the first one!

And there is just the minor detail of Wonko the Sane being described as something along the lines of 3 David Bowies stuck together and wrapped in a bathrobe! Anyone know the exact wording?
It would just be the ultimate joke. Of course, it would just be the one David Bowie, not several stuck together, but still!

Several David Bowies stuck together... *pictures this*
...
Oh, sorry, where were we?
Oh, right. *Digs out her copy of So Long and Thanks for all the Fish.*
"If you took a couple of David Bowies and stuck one David Bowie on top of the other David Bowie, the attached another David Bowie to the end of each of the arms of the first two David Bowies and wrapped the whole business up in a dirty beach robe you would then have something which didn't exactly look like John Watson, but which those who knew him would find hauntingly familiar."
CLASSIC Douglas Adams, that.
