Happy Hogswatch

For those who are fans of the Discworld, I’ve just seen the first trailer for the TV miniseries based on Terry Pratchett’s Hogfather.

Looks like it has potential, as a live action seasonal story with the fun of wizards, the Oh God of Hangovers, and of course, a rather skinny and bony individual who has swapped his scythe for a red jacket and a large sack…

It’s certainly a departure from the traditional Christmas story… and with a classic comedy actor in the form of David Jason playing the part of Albert - it’s one I’m looking forward to seeing.

  • Hi Tom,
    I was lucky enough to go to the Premiere of this a couple of weeks ago, we have a review of the first part online here http://www.lifegoggles.com/?p=211. A little slow but was setting up the story nicely for the second part.

    i’ve only seen the short trailer on tv but what is the theme music - it seems to be a tune of georges brassens the french chansonnier - anyone got any clues?
