Terry Pratchett's Hogfather on Sky One

Im actually very happy and excited about this! Im a huge fan of Terry Pratchett's Discworld series and Im happy that its gotten a TV adapation. I have Soul Music and The Wryd Sisters animated movies and really enjoyed them.

I remember hearing the rumour that Mort was going to be made into a movie some years ago, but from the looks of it, that ideas been scrapped. Yes I can see myself watching this hopefully over the Christmas period. My only disappointment is that Christopher Lee wont be voicing Death this time like he did in Soul Music.

But lets hope its a Christmas cracker for us Discworld fans ^^
Thoughts?

Hogfather (TV series)

Some nice casting there, but I'm a bit worried as Hogfather I felt was not one of my more favourite Discworld novels and not sure it'll work as a TV show. But what it does have is a great villain in Mister Teatime and I hope they do him justice at least.

Sounds like fun! :D

i can't imagine how it will work animated, but i thought the book was good so i'll try and catch this when it's on.

edit: wait it's live action? iiiinteresting...

Death is the only character thats animated as far as Im aware. The rest are real life cast.

Must... Bootleg....
Must... see... in reasonable time frame from release...
Smeg that it's not getting shown stateside!

I'm a big Discworld fanatic (see my signature) and am really interested in seeing this adaption of Hogfather. Not my favorite book of the series, but still fun. :D Thanks for posting this!!

One bit I hope they keep in is the pisstake of the Little Match-Girl story XD
