About this listen
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.
Harry Enfield stars as Douglas Adams' much-loved psychic sleuth, with Billy Boyd (The Lord of the Rings), Andrew Sachs (Fawlty Towers), Jim Carter (The Golden Compass), and Olivia Colman (Peepshow).

Quirky but hard to follow.
Perhaps I would have liked it more if I’d been concentrating better and listened instead of multitasking. The music was a bit intrusive at times and the frequent interruptions for episode conclusions/announcements was distracting.

Fun story with a great performance
I did enjoy the performance very much, though at times I felt some bits didn't quite make sense - would like to read the book now. One-time listen though, unlikely to listen to it again.

Intelligent and lol funny
Very funny, lol funny and intelligent comedy/adventure. Sometimes I was right there figuring out the story plot as Dirk figured out the mystery.

Not as good as Hichhicker's Guide
Well performed, but the story was not really that good. Funny at times but no where near as good as Hichhicker's Guide to the Gallexy.

It's a shame it's so short
I get that the dramatised version is shorter than the unabridged. But it's a shame because Douglas Adams is a genius! I absolutely love Dirk Gently. Season 1 is on Netflix too ;)
