I have to add a new movie to my list of favorite holiday movies.

I have been a fan of Terry Pratchetts books since about 1990, when I accidentally ran across the Colour of Magic. So, when I heard that Sky One (A cable station from the UK) was presenting Hogfather as a two-part mini series this Christmas, I was thrilled.

I was also suprised to see Nigel Planer, whom I recognized as the Hippie from the Young Ones as the wizard, Mr. Sidney.

Unfortunately, since I do not have access to UK Cable, I had to obtain the show by way of torrent. It was incredibly well done. A nearly perfect adaptation of Pratchetts Diskworld. My wife, who has no knowledge of the book series loved every minute of it.

I can only pray that it becomes available on NTSC DVD sometime soon.
