Synopsis
Hogfather
It is the night before Hogswatch and the Hogfather (that jolly fat
man who brings presents to the kiddies) is missing. If the presents
aren't delivered the sun will not rise tomorrow morning. So another
supernatural entity that also knows where everyone lives, has
stepped in...Death!
While his Ho, Ho, Ho, could do with some work, his granddaugher,
Susan has to find the real Hogfather. Will there be enough belief
in the Hogfather to make the sun come up? Join David Jason, Nigel
Planer and Marc Warren in this sumptuous two-part adaptation of
Terry Pratchett's best selling novel.
The
Colour Of Magic
In the city of Ankh-Morpork, things are going badly for failed
wizard Rincewind (David Jason). Recently expelled from the Unseen
University, Rincewind reluctantly accepts an offer to guide hapless
tourist Twoflower (Sean Astin) on a journey across Discworld,
unknowingly setting in motion a chain of events that threaten both
their safety and existence of the Disc itself. With Rincewind's
arch-enemy, the bloodthirsty Trymon (Tim Curry), in hot pursuit,
can the inept duo save themselves and Discworld from
destruction?
Going
Postal
Moist Von Lipwig (Richard Coyle) is an exceptional con artist faced
with a difficult life-choice: the hangman's noose or Lord
Vetinari's (Charles Dance) offer to become Ankh-Morpork's next
postmaster. He chooses the Post Office, but soon discovers that
it's overflowing with undelivered mail and hazardous to his health.
Despite the best efforts of the devious Reacher Gilt (David
Suchet), Lipwig is determined to turn around the fortunes of the
ailing postal system. It won't be easy but assisted by Junior
Postman Groat (Andrew Sachs), pin-obsessed Stanley (Ian Bonar),
beautiful Adora (Claire Foy) and an army of golems, there's always
a plan for a man who will push the envelope.
