I'd still suggest Jessica Alba, if she could learn a plausible English accent...

Tonsil Revenge (PG) Posted Oct 11, 2003
What the hell is a plausible Englich Accent?
Emma Thompson?
Dame Diana Rigg?
I mean, a useful Trillian would have to sound like a modern shop girl with a first in Maths at the Uni, now wouldn't she?
Undt wot do that sound like, nowadays?

Well not only that, it'd have to be one of the more southern universities, I would think. I can't see a mancunian Trillian. Perhaps that's only because I'm cantabrigian myself.

Shouldn't she have attended St. Cedes Uni?
1 July, 2003: Robbie Stamp and the Hitchhiker's Movie
Researcher 185550 Posted Oct 12, 2003
Quite possibly.
Was it St. Cedes, or St. Cely's? I can't remember. Something like that. It was modelled on St. John's, anyway.

Mr. Christopher, enjoying the Magicians Guild game where he is called Polonius Franc, Elder Healer and local merchant Posted Oct 12, 2003
Neither, it's St. Cedd's

I remember reading the first chapters and thinking to myself, "There isn't any more to that poem! Of that I'm certain!" and spending an afternoon at the library looking up versions of the poems.

I would love to be a writer on the Drik Gently Holistic Detective TV Show.
1 July, 2003: Robbie Stamp and the Hitchhiker's Movie
Researcher 185550 Posted Oct 12, 2003
I'd produce for sure. That is what I do. Be great fun.
Not as much fun as being Dirk, but I can't act.

Researcher 185550 Posted Oct 12, 2003
"Oh the usual. He should know about that. Don't bother me with such trivial matters! My mind is set on higher things! Ff, you people are useless! I'll be in my trailer."
