Does this belong in this forum? Does it come under:

I don't know where it should be... but not here, the avatar/intro, RP forums or monastery forums that's for sure.

That guy who plays Baldrick in Blackadder (Tony Robinson?) might be good at one of the Watch? I'm not very good at these things though I'm afraid.

P.S. Or what about Grommit/ or a lookalike for Gaspode.

So your not talking about Geoffery Rush? WHo might make a good Reg Shoe now that I came to think of it...

Hugh Laurie is looking promising for me as Vimes, as long as he can House's cynacism with an English accent I'd back him...

The location of this thread could possibly in the other stuff thread, but there doesn't to be anything of note here bulking out this thread so it may have to stay to keep the place warm and occupied so it doesn't start digging holes under the fence and chewing the plants...

I suggest this become the 'official casting thread' and as such, stay on topic, be devoid of utter nonsense, and get moved into boardania. Any objections?

No objections. The thread is of a serious nature. I agree with Ben and Garner.

The Garner who cares.

Stickying to make this one the official. lemme know if anyone objects.

also, Steve Buscemi dies in almost every movie he's in, so i'd be constantly worried they were going to kill off nobby. he could probably do a good job of playing the character though.

Steve Buscemi is a good idea, but I stil think that Mackenzie Crook is the perfect Nobby.
