Frood is the noun (as in "Ford Prefect is a hoopy frood"), although it did have an adjectival form, froody, as in the line from the books, "That would not be cool and froody."

TV Adaptation
Well done Reg for using a TV adaptation pic and ignoring the heartbeakingly bad movie.
The movie was pretty good!
Of course the TV version rules, but the movie production was pretty good as well.
Radio
The radio series was the original and still the very best. All 13 lovely hours of it.
I have it all and listen often.
Simply can not be beaten!
