DanteGabriel Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Thanks for the heads-up. I hope they air it in the US... I must say, I am a little suspicious of the "docu-drama" part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Quork Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Yes, the "docu-drama" element is a little concerning, but I'll still give it a go and hope it's not too intrusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werthead Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 That was actually pretty good. I was dubious about the "docu-drama" stuff, but it wasn't really like that. Actor Paul Kayne (Thoros of Myr!) did a Pratchett impersonation but he was reading Pratchett's actual words, from his unfinished autobiography and from his many thousands of words of letters and interviews. It was a lot less intrusive than I thought it would be. I held it together until Neil Gaiman lost it whilst talking about his last conversation with Terry over scampi and chips.

Ser Quork Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I agree, it was a lot less intrusive than I feared. I enjoyed it - although I would have liked it to be longer. Had a good laugh at the critic who said women would never read his books. Right-o! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much this, and it was a pretty good impression too, though he couldn't quite get the impediments right. Gaiman got us both going as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
