As before, I will reveal the answer at noon, or after 20 questions or when someone guesses it, whichever is first.

Okay, slartybartfast!

On second thoughts, I've just seen the price of the radio series on CD - ouch. Get the book from your charity shop instead.

br0adwater Fri 18-Nov-16 08:24:33

Ok, I'm back and ready.

it's a person

By the way DON'T PANIC

If all this is gobbledygook , read the book or better still get the radio series on CD. It is very improbable that you won't enjoy it.

Ford prefect, and of course Tillion was ZB's girl friend after she dumped FP. Oh yes and the mice are in charge. And you will never wish for a bypass again.

Wobblybits Thu 17-Nov-16 22:04:52

Clues were
For Prefect
Marvin the paranoid depressed android
Towels are essential for space travel
Zaphod Beeblebrox had two Heads

It was originally a radio play, then a book. TV series and film, he priginal play is by far the best.

Tomorrow is good for me BW. Good night.

br0adwater Thu 17-Nov-16 22:02:58

The clues came too late, it was a lucky guess

I'm off to bed now so can I start one tomorrow? Unless one of you night owls is happy to step in?

Linsco56 Thu 17-Nov-16 22:00:14

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang?

Wobblybits Thu 17-Nov-16 21:59:41

I was getting paranoid there, thinking you wouldn't get it.

Well done BW, I trust my Trillions of clues helped you come up with the answer, which is of course -- 42

br0adwater Thu 17-Nov-16 21:56:43

Hitchhikers Guide TTG?

Wobblybits Thu 17-Nov-16 21:56:08

Not a classic like Shakespeare etc

16 to go

Wobblybits Thu 17-Nov-16 21:53:17

I am off to bed soon, so if you want to get this you need to work together as two heads are better than one.
Clue you might think an old car is part of the cast.

Was going to get ready for bed but I forgot to pack my towel, so have to go scrounge one, back soon.

Linsco56 Thu 17-Nov-16 21:50:45

OK back to the drawing board.

Is it one of the classics?
