Ford and Arthur find themselves in Southend...but all is not as it seems. A clip from the now deleted episode 2 Patreon: www.patreon.com/user?u=4565412
This is still my favourite portrayal of Arthur and Ford, because I really feel that they're _best friends._ Ford never feels right - in other adaptations - when he's a little too unconcerned with things around him or for Arthur. I like to imagine Ford's legit trying to make it up to Arthur for Earth getting destroyed. Otherwise it feels like 'why did you even bother saving him, you twonk?'

The last gag by Trillian a favourite. 1:1 we have achieved normality. I repeat we have achieved normality! ......Anything you still can't deal with is therefore your own problem. That line... Pure Douglas. Pure cheek!!

2:18 - "AND IT WENT... WHEREVER I... DID GO!" I liked the movie, but I was bummed that this scene was watered down to Arthur and Ford just being sofas. ;P

I felt the same but i did love the way the heart of gold appeared by flashing as different random objects with silly squeaky noises. I think it really reflected the way Douglas Adams would take common sci fi concepts like warp speed and hyperspace, and reduce them to something silly and ridiculous

and the absolute best part is that due to the Heart Of Gold's completion and the infinite improbability Drive being completed, that hyperspace bypass that was needed where the Earth used to be is now not needed and was scrapped not long after the Earth was destroyed. And they knew it was actually coming too! That's the best part of this lmao

For all of you to know, Welcome to the KZitem Algorithm. The probability for you to get this video is 2 to the power of 252,658,523 to get to this video, possibly smaller. If you where just waving from the search engine, you could have also just ended up here by typing in random keyboard inputs to get here, which is even more unlikely. Please ignore anything you happening until reality comes into full fruition. It will also be very helpfully if you would please report any strange events to help improve the improbability search engine, and point out speeling errors.
