Celebrate 42 years of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy with this anniversary edition featuring the original radio scripts that started it all.

March 1978 saw the first ever transmission of Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy on BBC Radio 4, launching a cult phenomenon. March 2020 marks the 42nd anniversary of that groundbreaking debut. Pan Macmillan commemorates the occasion by reissuing The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: The Original Radio Scripts, featuring an introduction by Simon Jones.

This collection faithfully reproduces the text as first published in 1985, with all twelve original radio scripts presented exactly as they were broadcast. Amendments and additions made during recordings are included, as well as the previously 'lost' script from the 25th anniversary, 'Sheila's Ear', and original notes by producer Geoffrey Perkins and Douglas Adams himself.

These scripts are essential reading for both longtime fans and the next generation just discovering the brilliance of Douglas Adams. A must-have for collectors, this special anniversary edition release coincides with reissued novels in the Hitchhiker's series: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, Life, the Universe and Everything, So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and Mostly Harmless.
