How good does the trailer look!

So excited for 31 May Grin

I'm torn between rereading the book before or waiting until after

I accosted some poor woman in the bookshop today who was buying a Pratchett book so I could fangirl at her about Good Omens.

I'm pathetic.

I love this book, have done for a very long time.
I also like David Tennant and have Amazon prime, I think it is all coming together.

Found you all! I am so excited. Think DT will be brilliant as Crowley.

I'm working late on Friday and early on Saturday so I won't get to get stuck in till Saturday afternoon. I cannot wait!

There is an MNer whose name is @SisterMaryLoquacious. I thought she would be on this thread but it appears not!

Waves

Sadly I think we won’t get the other four horsemen appearing. I was googling to see whether I could fit “ThingsNotWorkingProperlyEvenAfterYouveGivenThemAGoodThumping” into the MN nickname field (you can’t) and found a news story saying they’d been cut.

I’ll be setting my Amazon Prime free trial up this evening.

Grin I might change to TheDarkLordsIckleTosieWosies for the occasion

Saw the first two eps at the premiere on Tuesday; loved it!!!

ImportantWater · 30/05/2019 19:05

I got 6 months free Prime with EE. Just in time!

CMOTDibbler · 30/05/2019 19:15

We have been debating whether to binge watch or eke it out. I've seen it might drop on netflix as early as 8am!

GenuineKlatchianPottery · 30/05/2019 19:17

So excited for this. I’ve been listening to Good Omens on Audible this week.
Also really excited for Night Watch next year (crosses fingers and toes).

MyGastIsFlabbered · 30/05/2019 19:19

Only 1 day to go! I hope I'm not disappointed. I was really excited for American Gods but found myself losing interest very quickly.

SpeedyBojangles · 30/05/2019 23:08

Just been watching Michael Sheen in the Good Fight and he is such a superb actor!

I go on holiday Saturday so will only be able to watch one episode really before I go.

GreasedPiglet · 30/05/2019 23:12

I can't wait to watch this tomorrow 🙂. It will be the first thing I've watched on Prime for ages...

CoolCarrie · 30/05/2019 23:15

Did I see Jack Whitehall in that promo?
Great cast, roll on tomorrow!

LiveatCityHall · 30/05/2019 23:29

@cmot apparently all 6 eps are being released at the same time on prime. I know what I'm doing this weekend!! I've been so excited for this and have been following both Gaiman and Amanda Palmer on Instagram (she gives away so much more!) for exciting tidbits 😊. It's taken 5 years for Gaiman to write the script so I'm sure it's 100% true to the original book 🤞

GreasedPiglet · 30/05/2019 23:44

Oh no, all 6 episodes at once sounds dangerous! What time will they be available from?

Starting 1 now...

It's very close to the book so far
