However, in a moment of genius, the earthlings on Nano (including the assembled Dents, and the loons bought to the planetoid by Hillman Hunter) have been saved by Constant Mown, Prostetnic Jeltz's son, quoting law at his father. But what now for Arthur, Random, and Ford? And will Zaphod's trick of (no-hands) catching Thor's helmet on his head be the Sub-Etha hit he hopes? I'm not sure. But I do think, that this will be it.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Part Forty-Eight

Trillian and Wowbagger are happy, Zaphod and Thor are happy, what could go wrong?

Trillian and Wowbagger have, figuratively speaking, now ridden off into a beautiful romantic sunset. Zaphod and Thor in the meantime are on Nano, living it up at a banquet in Thor's honour, totally oblivious to the fact that the Vogons are in orbit, and preparing the obliterate the planetoid with an experimental weapon, a SECRET experimental weapon. Onboard the Vogon ship, The Business End, Prostetnic Jeltz is eager to see what this weapon is capable of doing, whilst his grovelling son, Constant Mown, is doing what he can to stop his father. Because, unlike most Vogons, he is not into the whole bureaucratic shindig, and would really like to discuss Country music with somebody... #dontpandemic #dontpanic #hitchhikersguidetothegalaxy #hhgttg #hitchhikersguide #douglasadams #fortytwo #lifetheuniverseandeverything #arthurdent #fordprefect #zaphodbeeblebrox #trillian #marvin #paranoidandroid #thehitchhikersguide #thehitchhikersguidetothegalaxy #hg2g

Wowbagger is heading into orbit (involuntarily), and Arthur is being gauche, as usual...

Thor and Wowbagger have had their epic showdown, which has left Wowbagger soaring up into the stratosphere of Nano after a spectacular uppercut from Mjölnir.However, it rather seems that Bowerick Wowbagger was having serious second thoughts about ending his immortality, as he and Trillian have very deeply fallen in love. It would seem. Arthur meanwhile is trying his very best to not be quite so damnably gauche and, well, English about everything. Things DO seem to be a bit of a pickle, eh?

Dark space... it does things... 

A long period in dark space has massively amplified feelings amongst the passengers of the Tanngrísnir, love seems to be in the air, and hate, or are they? Wowbagger and Thor look set for a bit of a smack-down, but does Wowbagger still want to die? We know all the cows do, daft buggers. But most importantly, will Arthur ever get his wine, and will Ford get some sauce for all the recently lightning-fried steak lying around?

Things have gone... fruit-shaped of some variety... on Nano. The Nanites and Tyromancers have been failing to have a proper war despite their best endeavours, and Hillman Hunter's diddly-dee charm is struggling to do deal with the reality of the improbable arrival of The Heart of Gold (at first in the form of a giant wheel of cheese, that's improbability for you), and with it, Thor, spoiling for a real fight. It seems Zaphod is behind all of this, but to what end? Listen in, and find out.

Well, Zaphod has done what only Zaphod can do by achieving the apparently impossible (or at least the massively improbable) by getting a SERIOUSLY naffed-off Thor back onside with the promise of improving his standings amongst the mortals of the galaxy. It seems he is in the process of brokering a fairly impressive knock-down-drag-out fight between the god and Wowbagger the infinitely prolonged. But what's all this stuff about Nano? And where does Zaphod fit in? Listen in and find out!

A one-off world exclusive interview with the big guy himself... 

It’s the time of year when our thoughts turn to things festive, to the sharing of love, the sharing of joy, of light and happiness. But this doesn’t happen without a bit of effort from all of us.

The Santa Special - with The Bearded Wit & Vic Hyland

Could you schmooze Thor? More's the point, can Zaphod?

Zaphod, having learned Heimdall's real name (and the ability to compel the god into doing what he wants), has now FINALLY managed to get into Asgard. Onboard the Tanngrísnir, Ford, Arthur, and Fenchurch are busy ignoring the "boom-chicka-wow-wow" going on between Trillian and Wowbagger. But will Zaphod be able to persuade Thor to kill Wowbagger? And perhaps slightly more important than this, will he be able to persuade Thor NOT to kill HIM before he gets to ask about killing Wowbagger?

Not Random for sure... I say, this is all getting rather complicated. Why not tune in as we try and work it all out?
