Hogfather (tv movie)?
So, did anyone else happen to catch the wonderful tv movie "Hogfather" last night, on the ION channel? I've been a Terry Pratchett fan for many years, and I wasn't even aware that a film version of my favorite Pratchett book (Hogfather) had been made.
I thought it was wonderful. It's probably the closest book-to-movie adaptation I have ever seen in my life. The characters were so well-played, and the actors chosen were perfect. It was also good to see Nigel Planer (my favorite "Young One") in something new.
Anyone else happen to catch it (or see it prior to now)? What did you think?
Yeah, I realized last night that the movie was made a year ago for Sky. I also knew about the Wyrd Sisters movie, as well as the Soul Music one made at the same time.
And the dvd was released in the US a few months ago, available at one particular chain bookstore. However, they're apparently doing a wide release of the dvd in a few months.

I think the part of Albert was miscast should have used the Brit actor Richard Wilson who would have been better.
This film was made last Christmas and was shown on Sky in UK. Did enjoy it though.
Also an animated adaption of Wyrd Sisters was also made a few years ago and shown on tv in UK.
I live in the UK and The Hogfather is available here in UK on DVD.
