The radio series was best, TV not bad, haven't seen the film.
My two least favourite forms of fiction are sci fi and comic novels but I have read some of the HHG books - Douglas Adams was a one off I think.

Anne made me watch Great Expectations this week which I thought was pretty good (esp. Ray Winstone as Magwitch) and I'm sure knowing the characters will come in handy for some future quiz.

Thought the beginning with Magwitch was good but then it got too dark. Older Pip was far too pretty and couldn't bear Miss H so I gave up!
