Mark Steadman, Danny Smith and Jon Hickman continue their mission to discuss everything in the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy canon , in alphabetical order.
Evildrome Boozarama
The Evildrome Boozarama is a bar Ford and Hotblack used to crash, pretending to be health inspectors. Here, Danny and Jon share some stomach-turning foodie tales.
Fallian marsh gas
When mixing a Pangalactic Gargleblaster, one should allow four litres of Falian marsh gas to bubble through, “in memory of all those happy hikers who have died of pleasure in the Marshes of Fallia”.
Fanalla
On Fanalla can be found the Bwenelli Atoll, where Ford first started working at the Guide, “before the Riktanarqals and the Danqueds vertled it”. Fanalla also has rum that Ford remembered liking. Danny shares a story of nearly vertling a local publication.
Fenchurch
Fenchurch is the girl who came up with the idea to solve everything, in a cafe in Rickmansworth. She is played by Jane Horrocks in the radio series, but since Jon is on record as fancying Fenchurch, he has first dibs on casting her role in our hypothetical Netflix adaptation.
Fifty-Three More Things to do in Zero Gravity
A book that sold better than the Guide. In celebration, Danny shares numbers 2, 3, 4, 54, 55 and 56.
Finlon
Finlon is a Golgafrinchan documentary film director. He made a film about the indigenous peoples of Earth dying out, and was planning on telling the story of the captain of the B Ark. Jon, as a media studies man, do you have any documentary tips?

What is Beware of the Leopard: the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy podcast?
New additions to the book with the famous words "Don't Panic" on the cover. Smart and funny, fusing real-world observation with a writing style Douglas Adams fans have sorely missed.
With each topic, the panel of authors and performers present an essay in the style of a Hitchhiker's Guide entry, which is then discussed in a format that fans of BBC radio comedy know well, but with a 21st century twist.
Whether you've only read the first book, seen the film, or are completely new to the world of Arthur Dent and his friends, Beware of the Leopard will make you chuckle, and if you're a really cool frood, you'll love the team's attention to detail. And if you're new our podcast, check out our previous season in which the team discussed every known thing in Douglas Adams' sprawling universe (or the Whole Sort of General Mishmash, as it's known).
