Which, by a staggering coincidence, was also the telephone number of an Islington flat by

The improbability factor (in the TV series) of being rescued before 30 seconds have passed after being thrown out of the airlock of a spaceship not wearing a spacesuit. This improbability factor "… was also the telephone number of an Islington flat, where Arthur once went to a very good party and met a very nice girl, whom he entirely failed to get off with. Though the planet Earth, the Islington flat, and telephone have all now been demolished, it is comforting to reflect that they are, in some small way, commemorated by the fact that twenty-nine seconds later, Ford and Arthur were, in fact, rescued.

    Trilliant! (groan). Haven’t seen one of those telephone labels for a long time. Pretty sure the phone number on our early ones looked like they came out of a typewriter too :)
