or Eric Idle? what a cracking watch! 'behind the wizard's curtain' indeed! i truly hadn't even begun to appreciate the enormous vastness of the production logistics behind the show. very refreshing.Charlie wrote:

One episode in and I'm still undecided. Could be that familiarity with the source material and its influences means that if it doesn't stick precisely to the book I shall be miffed.

having read the book umpty-ump million times before i saw this and just the once afterwards i can honestly say you can count the (noticable) variations/additions on one hand.EvilBastard wrote:One episode in and I'm still undecided.

...well, I'm a bit ticked off that Warlock's birthday party didn't follow the original thread (I get why, guns are a bit out of favour just now), and having Crowley and Aziraphale play the part of Nanny Ashtoreth and Brother Francis wasn't ideal.
But I shall stick it out for another couple of episodes and see where it goes.

a lot of the adjustments are there due to to the times. the number of people f**ked up by the cellphone networks being down wouldnt make sense if it were the original 20,000. certain 'new' prophecies e.g. the apple one are just to give the story a credible setiing in the 21st century -an altogether different century from the one it was written in originally. i consider these allowable changes and not covered by the handful i mentioned. don't be a grump anyway- its wicked!EvilBastard wrote:Anathema being Americaneastmidswhizzkid wrote:having read the book umpty-ump million times before i saw this and just the once afterwards i can honestly say you can count the (noticable) variations/additions on one hand.
Her mother being involved
Pepper's kid sister missing from the Inquisition
The omission of Pepper's mum's buying of a bra in her background narrative
The addition of prophecies which were most certainly not in Ms Nutter's original
"I smell evil." "Ah yes, that would be the Jeffrey Archer."
The first encounter between Shadwell and Newton Pulsifer
And that's just in the 2nd episode.
That's part of the problem (and it's my problem, certainly, no-one else's) - you read a book and you dream up the environments where the action happens in your head. Someone makes a movie or TV series, and it's what's in their head, they take out the bits that don't matter to them (and they don't see fit to consult with you first). Sometimes it's fine, sometimes...it's disappointing.
