Logistics and casting for HHGTTG part 3 - 14.30 on Sunday 30th August

[wildeabandon]

I'm reposting the casting for the main characters and I've tried to also include all the smaller recurring characters who were cast in earlier episodes, especially where the casting has changed because people have dropped out. We're a smallish cast, so although I think I've mostly avoided talking to ourselves, I might have slipped up somewhere. A couple of deliberate exceptions are djm4, who sometimes has lines consecutive with sound effects, which somehow seems much less of an interruption to the flow, and the Lintillas and Allitnils, where I thought the benefits of having them all played by the same actor outweighed the disadvantages. That does mean that there are a few occasions, minihedgehog and tenebrousphantom, where you have to speak at the same time as yourselves, but I have every faith in you ;)
