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

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 tooWink

ShesNoNormanPace · 21/09/2017 21:28

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

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 · 22/09/2017 13:49

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

ISaySteadyOn · 23/09/2017 20:31

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

Fridayfun · 23/09/2017 22:06

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

ISaySteadyOn · 24/09/2017 14:42

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

bookworm14 · 24/09/2017 14:43

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

Photo of Tennant and Sheen in costume from Neil Gaiman's Instagram.

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

ISaySteadyOn · 25/09/2017 16:31

They're Crowley and Aziraphale, yes?

JsOtherHalf · 26/09/2017 16:06

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

mrwalkensir · 26/09/2017 20:30

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

Creatureofthenight · 26/09/2017 20:32

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

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

scottishdiem · 06/10/2017 12:10

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 · 06/10/2017 14:08

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).

iklboo · 06/10/2017 14:12

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 · 06/10/2017 19:22
