Star Trek, Star Wars, and HHGTTG

These links to some SF articles are from [livejournal.com profile] kalypso_v, who posted them elsewhere.

The first is to Retro Rockets, a report on the Star Trek convention at which all the original cast gathered for James Doolan's last appearance. Note there are two pages. From this one, you can get to both the other articles.

Then there's Feel the Force, three Star Wars pieces by a first-time viewer and SF-phobic, and (on page two) Mark Hamill, and Simon 'Sean of the Dead' Pegg (which I know will interest at least one of you).

And then there's Thumbs Up, about the Radio 4 six-part adaptation of Douglas Adams’s third HHGTTG book with all the surviving members of the original cast. It's on Tuesdays at 6:30pm. I'm going to have to see if I can listen on-line and hope they get broadcast here too.

That third one keeps crashing Netscape. Annoying as it's the main one that I want to read.

Have just sent you the text, and a link to the photo, by e-mail.

Bum. It works fine for me under Firefox and IE6. Tell you what, I'll send you the text. :-)

Ah, I see Glitterboy already did. Thanks, mate!

Thanks for those! I enjoyed the the ST one especially - sadness about James Doohan, but smiles at the antics of the others.

Yeah, it is sad about Doolan, but great that they all got together like that.
