Today, I discovered, by chance*, that an Eagles song, Journey of the Sorceror, is the HHGTTG theme tune - it’s funny how life can still hold pleasant surprises, even as you get older.



*I asked ”Alexa" to play some Eagles music, and this came up.

I knew that, back in 2012 I was in the audience to see an episode of QI made (J-places).


While you wait they play music which is a clue to the episode title, the HHGTTG theme was played.
