It stars Martin Freeman, Sam Rockwell, Mos Def, Zooey Deschanel and the voices of Stephen Fry (the guide book) and Alan Rickman (Marvin, the Paranoid Android). Shooting was completed in August 2004 and the movie was released on April 28, 2005 in Europe, Australia and New Zealand, and on the following day in Canada and the United States. The screenplay is by Adams (who died in 2001) and Karey Kirkpatrick; the film is dedicated "For Douglas". Arthur Dent wakes up to find his house about to be demolished in order to make way for a bypass. He tries delaying the bulldozers by lying down in front of them. Ford Prefect, a friend of Arthur's, convinces him to go to the pub with him. Over a pint of beer (as "muscle relaxant"), Ford explains that he is an alien from a planet in the vicinity of Betelgeuse, and a journalist working on the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a universal guide book, and that the Earth is to be demolished later that day by a race called Vogons, in order to make way for a hyperspace bypass. Suddenly, a Vogon Constructor Fleet appears in the sky and destroys the planet. Ford saves himself and Arthur by hitching a ride on a Vogon ship. The two are discovered and thrown out of an airlock, but are picked up by the starship Heart of Gold. They find Ford's "semi-half brother" Zaphod Beeblebrox, the President of the Galaxy. He has stolen the ship along with Tricia "Trillian" McMillan, an Earth woman whom Arthur had met previously, and Marvin the Paranoid Android. Oct 21, 2012 11:31 AM

Using both contemporary and classical references, Bill Bailey explains, in his unique and hilarious way, the nuances of how the orchestra works and the lesser-known influences of various classical composers. Also included are some of his own original works, rearranged and performed by himself and the orchestra under the guidance of musical maestro Anne Dudley." - BBC User: SilenTom Dec 28, 2011 4:48 AM

Headline Tag: Television Rating: Amazing Hits: 3085 Comments: 2 Bill Bailey: Part Troll Bill Bailey: Part Troll Bill Bailey live at the Apollo in 2004 comedy show. RT 93:34. IMDB says: Bill Bailey's 'Part Troll' tour is quite possibly the funniest thing ever filmed. Ever. The amazingly talented comedian completely owns the stage, and gets laughs from a number of different means - most notably his guitar, keyboard and drum and bass sequences. It's amazing just consistently hilarious this show really is; I have quite a good sense of humour, but even I rarely see a show that will have me covering my eyes because I cannot bear to watch the hilarious facial expressions of Bill Bailey as well as hear what's coming out of his mouth for fear of being sick due to laughing so hard. Threads involving the BBC news, George Bush's words of wisdom being implemented into a drum and bass beat (which Bill calls 'Drum and Bush') and hilarious sequences on the general attitudes of British people and the terrorist organisation 'The Axis of Evil' are particular highlights. Bill Bailey is a very talented man, and quite how he manages to think of all this stuff is a mystery to a less talented mere mortal like myself. He's been blessed with a face and demeanour that lend themselves to comedy brilliantly, and this may be the finest performance in the entire history of comedy. My throat was screaming for mercy by the end of the show...and that's exactly what you want from a stand up comedian. 'Part Troll' is majestic in every respect.
