That's the best news I've heard all week, but I thought they'd already serialised the third book.

Actually no. The original radio series covered HHGTTG, and Restaurant ATEOTU. The last 6 episodes were what was supposed to come next. (they came out before the books were written), but Douglas Adams changed his mind, and the events of Life TUAE flatly contadicts the second radio season.

Doubt they will explain that away!
They had planned a LifeTUAE adaption a few years ago but it never took of.

also Disney of all people are supposed to be making a hitch-hiker film. hmm
i think it will be difficult to adapt the last 3 books as they went completly differentin the radio serialisation and as Wobag said they would have to somehow get the story back to where it starts in the 3rd book. Its the BBC so they will no doubt manage it
