Analysing great artists from the perspective of someone who knew them. Jon Canter shared a flat with his friend Douglas Adams while the latter struggled for success.
Andrew McGibbon presents a series of interviews analysing great artists from the perspective of someone who knew them.
Jon Canter shared a flat with his friend Douglas Adams while the latter struggled for success and then coped with the fame he found following the success of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Jon reveals the business of sharing a flat with his fiercely loyal, manically obsessive, loveable giant of a friend, who is still greatly missed after his sudden death ten years ago. Featuring contributions from other flatmates and Douglas' friend Professor Richard Dawkins.
