Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

The pictures certainly look good, and Neil Gaiman was directly involved, so I'm quite optimistic.

Enjoyed Amazon's attempt at Gaiman's American Gods, had a different vibe to the book for me but still good.

Some cause for optimism, though I feel it's hard to capture Pratchett's style, Gaiman's involvement another reason for hope

Sorry, jumping in late here, but I thought 'they' did a really good job with Going Postal.

I have a shameful confession: I have neither read nor watched American Gods.

I keep meaning to, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Shameful confession here too - I have Going Postal recorded, haven't watched it yet :-O

I struggled with Colour of Magic, so put off watching Going Postal.

The snag with discworld is having read all the books, many many lots, I have my very own and idiosyncratic view of it.

Funnily enough I enjoyed the 2 stage productions of Pratchett I've seen, one a national tour, the other a small local theatre production, both excellent.

Perhaps my issue is with the screen where so much is filled in for you, I don't like it if it's not my personal 'right'

Going Postal was great, and the Hogfather as well.

I was a little disappointed with The Colour of Magic, however.
Have we all seen the trailer for Troll Bridge? was that in here?
I don't think it was.

We saw Nation at the theatre, which was good, especially as I hadn't read the book.
