That's what it would be...
I still favour Catherine Zeta Jones as Trillian, although I reckon Ronni Ancona could also do her Justice...
And how about Alistair MacGowan as something/someone - maybe even Arthur? (i'm sure he could do a passable impression of Simon Jones(?)... 
)

Agree/Disagree
Jim Carey can the Ford, or at a push Zaphod, but NEVER Arthur.
So who is going to start this votes for the Perfect Arthur Dent,
English Stiff Upperlip Comedian, ????

With the exception of poor old Sandra (don't get me wrong, good actor, but she really should have been allowed to play Trillian as English), I thought the cast for the TV were excellent.
Oh yeah, Moth - Alan Davies denies he's been offered Dr Who but would do it if the BBC asked him...

Moth Posted Oct 21, 2003
i think i might do it , if the BBC asked me.
Alun himself said he'd like to see annette Crosby playing the doctor, (she of long suffering one foot in grave) so why not a female doctor?

Hmmm.. Her of to the Manor Born?
IIRC the Doctor can't change sex while regenerating - can he?
