Green Wing and Free Agents star Stephen Mangan is to play the lead role in BBC4's adaptation of the late Douglas Adams Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.
Mangan will be joined by Darren Boyd as his sidekick Richard MacDuff and Cold Feet and Friends actor Helen Baxendale, as MacDuff's girlfriend Susan.
Adapted by the Bafta-winning writer Howard Overman – who is also behind Misfits, Vexed and Merlin – Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency follows the exploits of Adams's chaotic character as he uses his unusual methods to solve crimes.
Mangan said: "I've been a fan of Douglas Adams ever since the Hitchhiker's radio series which I used to record as a child and listen to over and over again in my bedroom. It's such a thrill to now be playing one of his brilliant characters.
"Dirk is a chaotic, anarchic force of nature with a totally unique take on the world. He is described as 'lazy, untidy, dismissive and unreliable'. I've absolutely no idea why they thought I'd be right for the role."
The Dirk Gently books have formed the basis of a play and a BBC Radio 4 series but have never before been filmed for TV.
Adams's agent, Ed Victor, said: "For all the years I represented the late, great Douglas Adams, the most substantial frustration for both of us was that we couldn't get films made either of Hitchhiker or Dirk.
"Douglas once said, memorably, that 'getting a film made in Hollywood was like trying to cook a steak by having a bunch of people come into the room and breathe on it'. Well, we did eventually get a film made in Hollywood of Hitchhiker and, tragically, Douglas didn't live to see it. Nor will he see this adaptation of Dirk – but it's worth bearing in mind that Douglas always thought Dirk would make a better film than Hitchhiker and I feel sure that this new TV drama with a terrific script by Howard Overman will prove his point."
Shooting begins this week in Bristol on the 60-minute drama, which is being made by ITV Studios in association with the Welded Tandem Picture Company.
The Dirk Gently production is to be directed by Damon Thomas – who also directed BBC4 drama The First Men in the Moon – and will air early next year.
轻喜剧风的性转版“五十度灰”，DS和SM还是有区别的，和限制级算得上是毫无关系，想看到那些的人会失望，整体也是比较套路，最后带出一点女性导演的表达。
也是一部符合当下政治正确的性教育片
还浅学了一下重庆森林的擦肩而过镜头
腐女和男同的“交往”故事，沉迷耽美的女主恨不得全世界都是基情，唯独只想喜欢的男生也喜欢自己；日本作为耽美文化起源地和中心探讨起这样的话题倒是信手拈来，前半段两人的试探和男主的挣扎纠结呈现得不错，越往后却越收不住，礼堂表白作为高潮差点意思；男女主颜值在线也有cp感，不如一起合作真正的爱情片吧。
神尾再也不用在剧里配角了，渐渐挑大梁的感觉真棒。霓虹事务所的迭代性和乒乓球的代际差不多，国手也是新生了。好像没说什么和电影相关的话语，普普通通青春片罢了，两个心怀鬼胎的人，倒都也坦诚。讨论的问题比较尖锐罢了，更深入版本的《盛夏未来》。不过，这份坦然让我想到了我大二那会儿的坦诚前男友，祝双好。
我很肤浅 我只是喜欢看美好的画面和神尾枫珠 太多的对社会议题思考会很累 本质大家只会关心对自己有利的一面 女主是天使
男主演技还行，除此之外剧情一塌糊涂，要尺度没尺度，要感情戏没感情戏，一切都来的那么突如其来
2021釜山电影节上有机会看了这部片子。在此之前，也看了一些同类型的作品，所以主题的新颖度没有那么高，情节也是可以预想，但是演员的演技好归功于导演的导戏好，有着电影圣堂的加持，十月中旬晚风吹拂下，可以值四星半❤️
喜欢BL的少女与囿于性向苦苦挣扎的少男相互治愈的故事。受心理因素与外部环境影响逐渐完成从自我迷茫→厌恶→和解，并从中引发青少年对LGBT群体的探讨。岛国拍这类题材还是有一套，总能在某个不经意的瞬间戳中人心底，女孩子真是世界上最温柔的生物了。她喜欢的是，BL以及他；他喜欢的是，男人以及她。
SM+职场，处理成糖水小清新也挺可爱的，天下苦CENSORSHIP久矣。人好复杂，爱也好复杂 ...男主戴上眼镜，普通变惊艳。
踩雷。站在女性视角这个剧本好有毒，光同情gay了有没有人同情下同妻啊…呕！人前有老婆孩子人后出轨喜欢的男孩子，能不能不要祸害别人…むかつく！
虽说有些情节太说教和脸谱化
里面男主对自己的内心还是纠结的。虽然里面的结交有妇之夫做男朋友之后，还和女主交往，这两个我不能认同。但是和女主交往算是他对自己更深的探索。
这部作品的爆发点电影版神尾没有处理好，面目狰狞说着台词，挤了半天也没挤出一点泪。反而饰演妈妈的纱弥加，听到儿子的发泄，从一开始握紧的双手不断地颤抖，到后来默默摇头像做错事的小孩，背过身哭泣。
很多事情，我们嘴上说着理解，但未必真的能设身处地为他们着想。而作为不被理解的特殊人群也真的请不要自卑地以为是最可怜的一方，看看那些愿意自始至终相信支持并深爱着你的人。神尾自不用说（刚好最近在追难破...跟伍代地角色差异这么大..攻受转换自如赞）山田妹妹演技越来越好了，旺志郎也一直在成长。看到夕阳下的车站结尾已经觉得很圆满了....字幕后的彩蛋让我哭了足足十分钟缓不过来....为彩蛋加一星！强烈提醒要看到最后！
“总是有摩擦，才会有改变。”青少年性倾向的不断试探，总会有人在青春时候因为自己模糊的性向有过迷茫，就像少女喜欢BL，就像少年觉得自己不是同性恋，未必大众的审美才是世界，大部分时候能够正视自我，且勇敢的去表达，喜欢你的人，从不会畏惧你的身份而离开。
男主真是太可爱了！徐贤现在也好美！有点变态的剧情也刚刚好够脸红心跳
过于细腻
说到底还是要男生克制，因为他分分钟就可以把女的摁倒。这就是个电影。
诈骗啊！这拍的啥跟啥呀？！剧本什么鬼？白瞎了男主的好皮囊和好演技（女主面部有辣么一丢丢僵硬）。一颗星给男主，一颗星给女主和其他演员。ps.男主在剧里的造型堪称本人最佳
