Fiction. Mystery. Science Fiction. Humor (Fiction.) HTML: The complete BBC Radio collection bringing together two full-cast dramatisations of Douglas Adams's Dirk Gently novels. In Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency Dirk Gently has an unshakeable belief in the interconnectedness of all things, but his Holistic Detective Agency mainly succeeds in tracking down missing cats for old ladies. Then Dirk stumbles upon an old friend behaving bizarrely - and he's drawn into a four-billion-year-old mystery that must be solved if the human race is to avoid immediate extinction. In The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul Harry Enfield exuberantly returns as Dirk Gently, who, fallen on hard times and dressed as a gypsy woman, is using his irritatingly accurate clairvoyant powers to read palms. He is saved when a frantic client turns up with a ludicrous story about being stalked by a goblin waving a contract accompanied by a hairy, green-eyed, scythe-wielding monster. When Detective Superintendent Gilks decides a headless body found in a sealed room is the result of a particularly irritating suicide, Dirk is plunged into a mystery where the interconnectedness of all things is tested to the limit... Starring Harry Enfield as Dirk Gently along with Billy Boyd, Olivia Coleman, Andrew Sachs and Jim Carter. Guest stars include Peter Davison (Doctor Who), Jan Ravens (Dead Ringers), Philip Jackson (Poirot), John Fortune (Bremner, Bird & Fortune), Morwenna Banks (Absolutely) and Stephen Moore (The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy). .… (lisätietoja)

▾Jäsenten arvostelut

This dramatised adaptation of the two original Dirk Gently novels works well. Harry Enfield is not the world’s best actor, but he inhabits the character of Dirk satisfyingly enough (even if one does spend a lot of time wondering what Geoff McGivern would have made of the role).

The first story – Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency – is (in its printed form) probably my favourite novel. The plot is quite incredibly complex however, and I suspect that many of the people who dislike it have simply failed to understand it. This dramatisation therefore, I think, will be more successful for those who’ve already read the book: you might otherwise come out the end of it going “eh?”

The second story – The Long Dark Teatime of the Soul – is less clever, but still fun.

Olivia Colman’s performance as put-upon secretary Janice Pearce is probably the best result of the casting, and Hitchhiker fans can amuse themselves listening for subtle in-jokes in the sound effects. (
