It originally aired on BBC Radio 4 UK in 1978, followed by the BBC World Service, National Public Radio in the US and CBC Radio in Canada. The series was the first radio program to be released in stereo, and was innovative in the use of music and sound effects, winning a number of awards. The series tells the adventures of the hapless Englishman Arthur Dent and his friend Ford Prefect, an alien who writes for The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a pangalactic encyclopedia and a guidebook. After the Earth is destroyed in the first episode, Arthur and Ford are on board a stolen spaceship manned by The Doublebrox (Ford's half cousin and galactic president), the depressed robot Marvin and Trillian, the only other person to survive the destruction of Earth. In March 1977, a pilot programme was commissioned and was registered by the end of June the following year. The second series was commissioned in 1979 and was broadcast in 1980. Episodes of the first series were re-recorded for release on LP recordings and audiotapes, and Adams adapted the first series into a bestseller in 1979. After the second radio series, a second novel was published in 1980 and the first series was adapted for television. This was followed by three more novels, a computer game, and various other media. Adams considered writing a third radio series based on his 1993 novel Life, the Universe and Everything, but the project didn't begin until after his death in 2001. Dirk Maggs, with whom Adams new series, director and co-producer radio adaptation, as well as adaptations of the remaining Hitchhiker's novels for so long, and thanks for all the fish and mostly harmless. They became steel fourth and fifth radio series, broadcast in 2004 and 2005. The sixth series, adapting the sixth part of Eoin Colfer in the trilogy, and one more thing... aired in March 2018. The development of Douglas Adams's Early Development promoted comedy sketches for BBC radio programmes produced by Simon Brett (including Burkiss Way and Week Ending), and was offered a pitch radio comedy in February 1977. Adams initially pitched a bedsit comedy because it seems that most of the comedy situations are usually, Os. Adams said in an interview, that when Brett proposed a radio sci-fi comedy series, he fell off his chair... because that was what I've been fighting all these years. Adams painted his first outlines in February 1977. Originally, to be called Ends of the Earth, each episode would have ended with Planet Earth meeting its demise differently. While writing the first episode, Adams realized that he needed a character who knew what would happen to Earth before the other characters. He made this character an alien and, remembering the idea he allegedly had, lying drunk in a field in Innsbruck, Austria in 1971, decided that this character would be a stray reporter for Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a pangalactic encyclopedia and a guidebook. Memories of his friends at the time show that Adams first talked about the idea of hitchhiking around the galaxy while vacationing in Greece in 1973. As the writing of the first episode progressed, the guide became the central focus of his story, and Adams decided to base the entire series around it, with the original destruction of the earth being the only holdover from the suggestion of The Ends of the Earth. In Adams' February 1977 account, Arthur Dent's character was called Aleric B, a joke that viewers initially assume that the character is also an alien, not a human being. Adams renamed the character the pilot Arthur Dent. Adams's biographer, M.J. Simpson, suggested that the character was almost certainly named after the 17th-century puritanical writer Arthur Dent, author of The Path of the Plain Man to Heaven, first published in 1601, though Adams himself did not claim to remember the conscious choice of name. The pilot and commissioning of Douglas Adams in 2000, the pilot episode was commissioned on March 1, 1977, and the recording was completed on June 28, 1977. Brett and Adams spoke about various parts of the pilot's genesis, including convincing the BBC that such a programme could not be recorded with a studio audience and insisting that the programme be recorded in stereo sound. To win the last argument, Hitchhiker was briefly classified internally as a drama instead of a comedy, as in 1977 BBC Radio Drama programs were allowed to be recorded in stereo, whereas BBC radio comedy programmes were The full six-episode series (five new episodes, plus the pilot) was commissioned on August 31, 1977. However, Adams, meanwhile, sent a copy of the hitchhiking pilot to the BBC's Doctor Who production office, and a few weeks later he was commissioned to write a four-episode series, Doctor Who. In addition, Brett left the BBC, and the last five episodes in the first series were produced by Jeffrey Perkins. With conflicting writing commitments, Adams made contact with his friend and flatmate John Lloyd to help write the fifth and sixth episodes. The second episode was released in November 1977. The last episode of the first series (later renamed Main Phase) was completed in February 1978, and production (including mixing and effects) was completed on March 3, 1978. Casting Adams wrote starring Arthur Dent and Ford The Prefect with actors Simon Jones and Jeffrey McGivern in mind. According to Jones, Adams called him when he wrote to the pilot to ask if he would essentially play himself; Adams later stated that although Dent was not an image of Jones, he wrote the role to play Jones's strengths as an actor. The radio series (both LP and TV versions) featured the narration of comedy actor Peter Jones as The Book. He was cast after a three-month search for an actor with sonorous, avuncular tones that sounded like Jones, after which the producers hired Jones himself. After another actor starred in the production, Bill Wallis was called in a short time to play two parts, Mr. Proseser and Vogon Jhelz. One of the characters who appeared in the pilot, who was excluded from subsequent incarnations of the story, was Lady Cynthia, an aristocrat who helps demolish Dent's house, played by another former Cambridge Footlights actress, Joe Kendall. The pilot showed only a small cast of characters, and after its introduction in the series there was a need for additional characters. Many of them have been selected for their roles in previous series; Mark Wing-Davy played a character in The Shining Prizes who took advantage of people and was very fashionable, making him fit for the role of zamod, according to Adams. Richard Vernon, known for his portrayal of grandfather types, was chosen as Slartibartfast. Other characters included Susan Sheridan as Trillian and Stephen Moore as Marvin.
