Anecdotes
The wardrobe crew were shocked to discover, halfway through filming, that only one dressing gown had been purchased for Arthur, and the line had been discontinued by the manufacturer. The cast and crew were then ordered to be particularly gentle with the dressing gown for the remainder of production. Towards the end of the series, it was rumoured that a second series would be made, and when shooting wrapped the dressing gown was locked away to preserve it in case it would be needed again.

Gaffes
The person operating Zaphod's third arm can be seen on multiple occasions.

Citations
Arthur Dent: You know, I've always had this feeling there was some greater purpose.
Slartibartfast: No, that's just ordinary paranoia. Everybody in the Universe has that.
Arthur Dent: Well if everyone has it, then perhaps it means something...

Crédits fous
Animator Kevin Davies, credited from episodes four to six, receives a different, humorous title each time. The job titles are: Mouse Trainer, Milliways Catering and Bath Superintendent.

Versions alternatives
At the time of filming, BBC policy was that all comedy shows should have a laugh track. The first two episodes were played to an audience of 100 people to record the laugh track, but it was never broadcast in this form.

Interesting for a 1981 audience

If you didn't see this when it was a mini series on the BBC back in 1981, you may have rented it at the video store where you get to watch the entire 3 hour plus series all together. I recommend you don't take it all in at once. Don't Panic!....but you're better off watching it in segments. At times, it can be too much of a good thing, then again, it could be too much of a bad thing as well. For 1981, the 16mm and video story was well done for its time. The acting and story are pure British humor in the late Python style. For a present day audience, it's hard to consider funny. As we speak, a remake is in the works to make the story more modern and entertaining. Still, the original is good for what it was. At the time, no one else had tried to do a movie like it. For that, the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy will always have its place on video shelves around the country.
