Alright, there's no need to go rubbing it in!

Swanking about the place. Swank, swank, swank...

Oh, I was going to put a line in my sig. Something like: "You may remember me from such films as The Colour of Magic" - after it's out on DVD. Do you think that might be too much?

He does seem like a really nice guy too, friendly and dedicated to get his role just right.

By the way, here is the first picture released of the supporting artists, I'm stupidly holding my hat in front of my face so you can't see me (obviously the guy in the trainers is part of the crew). A full collection of photos will be available in September, which I'll make a proper thread for. The film is out next Easter.

The scene is just outside the gates of Unseen University, the star thing is a target we made to foolishly lure the star falling from the sky.

STOP PRESS

More cast revealed.

Nigel Planer is the Arch-Astronomer,
Marnix Van Den Broeke as Death,
Nicholas Tennant (who played Corporal Nobbs in Hogfather) is the Librarian (prior to transformation),
and Terry will again appear in a cameo role.

Sourced from the Discworld Monthly newsletter.


Y'know what they say. Red sky at night, Ankh-Morporks Alight.

I just got a CD with lots of pictures of the supporting artists in The Colour of Magic.

They all had to be approved by the film company, which means there's no interesting scenery to see - only us lot in silly clothes and some of Terry Pratchett, and couple with Sean Astin, and the director.

Anyway I'll try to add them all into the gallery over the next week or so, here's Marcia and I on the edge of Sator Square. Just above my head, in the background, is the remains of a pulley system where I and group of fellow workers dropped a wizard-turned-to-stone, which smashes on the ground as Rincewind, Twoflower and the Librarian are walking by. Of course it wasn't my fault that we dropped it!

Awesome! I'd love to see more pictures if you can get them. Seeing people I know as Ankh-Morporkians is better than seeing the main characters!

Well here's a picture of him instead, dressed as Twoflower, not quite as good but it does have some guy with a beard in there too.

Personally I don't think he looks very far removed from how I imagine Twoflower to look.

By the way, the reason that I look all spacey-eyed in the photo is that I couldn't wear my glasses or contact lenses - so I couldn't see six inches past the end of my nose.

So I am seeing all this for the first time, too.
