daibhidcYou know that bit in Red Dwarf where Holly talks about parallel universes and says "Maybe Hitler won the Second World War. Or it could be something *really* weird like Ringo was a really good drummer"? Well, not even Holly could have imagined a world where *two* Discworld movies would be in pre-production *at the same time*[1]! And yet, I would appear to be living in such a world.
I've just learnt this week that there's a TV Movie of Terry Pratchett's "Hogfather" being made for Sky starring David Jason as Albert and Ian Richardson as the Voice of Death! This comes hot on the heels of the news that Wee Free Men is being filmed by Sam Raimi (*SAM* *RAIMI*!!) And Johnny and the Bomb was pretty great too!
[1]A third is actually in post-production, but isn't getting the press attention. Visit http://www.trollbridge.snowgumfilms.com for details.
