Only 'Trillian' I know of was Sandra Dickinson in the TV adaptation - hubba hubba!

RIP her predecessor though

Susan did the better voice performance - not least because she didn't have that damn annoying whine of an accent ...  Sadly, like several other original cast members, she was replaced for TV (younger, more presentable model ?).

  Don't know where you got that from; while not proliferate, she did have a TV career in addition to her voice career ...

I know Mike, I was referring to the radio cast of THHGTTG.

If you are lucky it will be repeated on digital radio BBC Radio4 extra (available on the Digital TV radio channels as well) where a lot of past programmes of this sort, including the navy lark turn up (also watch out for Hordes of the things - a really funny send up of Tolkien's Lord of the rings).
