while I sort of agree, I think that the john thaw (godresthissoul) would be to old, I see Vimes as a middle aged man who has aged simply because of his duty. I dont know who would be a good actor and at the risk of being unpopular I'd stab Clooney in the dark. He seems like a man who has aged grecefully and as such, with good make up, could look like a younger man aged by drink and hard work.

Poselthwaite was a good one (however his name is spelled.. ask his mother).

The best depction in my opinion wast the scarred and eyepatched version on the cover of Night Watch.


Which book are we talking about though? Vimes ages a lot througout the books.



P.S Please forgive my spelling, punctuation and grammer. I am on holiday and as such am trying to learn a new language so I am taking a liberal view to my mothertoungue (did I spell that right????)
