Good omens

[Mrsjohnmurphy]

Anyone else really looking forward to this? One of my favourite books, also David Tennant what's not to like

[RNBrie]

As in Terry Pratchet's Good Omens?! On the telly?! Are you kidding me?!

Christ, I'm half over the moon excited and half fucking terrified they are going to ruin one of the best books ever written. Be still my beating heart.

Can't wait! Loved the radio play too. Love your name too

DT looks very, very nice cue Trevor and Simon thigh rubbing in the set photos I've seen

[Mrsjohnmurphy]

I had a dream David served me a school dinner the other night, very odd. I hope they lose none of the humour and wit, wasn't overly keen on the adaptations of Pratchett's stuff.

I'm so excited about this, but it's so far away. I'm sure they said it would be on BBC 2 in 2019!

[ItchyFoot]

Yes I cannot wait! One of my absolute favourite books. And David Tennant is one of my favourite David's.

[ISaySteadyOn]

Wait, what? Good Omens with David Tennant? How have I not heard of this?

[Fridayfun]

So excited about this. David Tennent and Michael Sheen look amazing.

[ISaySteadyOn]

Could somebody please link to where I can see these things?

[bookworm14]

I am INSANELY excited about this. David Tennant and Michael Sheen are perfect for the roles. Also Miranda Richardson as Madame Tracy! ❤️

I am looking forward to Michael Sheen and David Tennant, but their costumes are ALL WRONG! Too obvious!

[ISaySteadyOn]

They're Crowley and Aziraphale, yes?

[JsOtherHalf]

I am so looking forward to this; it's probably my favourite book.

[mrwalkensir]

anyone else miss proper silver balls when they're decorating cakes and think of Good Omens....

[Creatureofthenight]

Can't wait! One of my favourite books, and I love DT

[ItchyFoot]

Jon Hamm is playing Archangel Gabriel.

[JsOtherHalf]

I have my original paperback, a pristine hardback copy, and an e version too.

[scottishdiem]

I love the fact that this was a joint book between Pratchett and Gaiman and even though Gaiman is involved the fear is that it wont do justice to a Pratchett book.

[ArcheryAnnie]

I've got a tattered paperback signed by both Gaiman and Pratchett - they apparently often did it in the same way, with Pratchett writing "BURN THIS BOOK!" and Gaiman writing "apply holy match here ->" (pointing to corner of page).

Excited and worried in equal measures after American Gods. Seems to be good casting so far, though I'll reserve judgement on Jack Whitehall as Newt.

[SchadenfreudePersonified]

What!? Why have I just found out abut this? It is the Best Book Ever - and David Tennant . . . .

When is this due to happen?
