Umm well, number 2 is off sick, 38 is suffering from a mild case of sanity, and 74 has

run off to the world of men to spread sparkly gigglepops to their drab civilization.
Is she nuts?
Oh yes, she scored very highly on the entrance exam!

You are an Illuminator. You add color and beauty to anything you can get your hands on: books, tavern signs, clocks, small barnyard animals. While your work goes largely unappreciated, at least it pays the bills. Why, that enormous golden M you painted for the new Scottish restaurant down the street netted you a farthing!

I watched it:

I admire what they did but I had mixed feelings about it.
It seems like an odd book to do. I know it was probably chosen for it's Christmas tie in but it seems other books would be easier to translate to the screen.

The wife liked it and she has never read a Discworld book.

Susan was very close to the character that I saw in my head and Mr. Teatime was suitably creepy.

It was very good for what it was.
I would like to have heard for quotes from the book but the ones they did use were great!

I would recommend it. Smile

I thought Susan looked like she should, but she seemed to be on valium or something. When I read Hogfather (or any book she's in) I read her as barely restraining her anger at the universe in general, and so she comes out snarky and slightly bitchy.

They left out some of my favourite bits and rearranged some of my other favourite bits.

oh yeah, and the Auditors having different weird squeaky voices - erm... the whole point of those things was that they were exactly the same and they loathed individuality. That was a small mistake, perhaps, but it niggled.
