Just a reminder to all the Hitchhiker fans that the new radio series starts this Thursday at 18:30 BST on BBC Radio 4

Twenty-five years after the original radio series of Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy exploded into the public consciousness, the further exploits of its bewildered hero, Arthur Dent, are being brought to life in their original medium and with the (mainly) original cast.

The last three books of the ‘trilogy in five parts’, Life, The Universe And Everything; So Long And Thanks For All The Fish and Mostly Harmless, have been dramatised as two new series (none of them were previously produced for radio).

As the original two series were dubbed the Primary and Secondary Phases by Douglas Adams, these new series form the Tertiary, Quadrenary and Quintessential Phases.

Thanks to the wonders of digital technology, Douglas Adams himself can be heard playing the part of Agrajag.

Being a big Hitchhicher fan myself but one new to listening to the radio via PC can anyone tell me the best way to record this?

Thanks and Enjoy,

Carl

I've been told that with the Premium version of RealPlayer you can create an MP3 CD with all 6 episodes. Would anyone here be willing to do that for me or tell me another way I could save them?

Thanks,

Carl

P.S. Just noticed that the editor here is adding "http://" to the beginning of these links. Just tried to delete it but the editor seems to have put them back in. Is there a better way of posting links like these?
