This is extremely dissapointing, and the worst part is that it didn't have to be. The BBC made a perfectly good adaptation of Going Postal that didn't take a hot steaming poo poo all over the original source.

I think Discworld has Audio Dramas. I'm pretty sure I listened to one.

Both Guards! Guards! and Night Watch had them, and they were amazing. I can't find them on the internet any more, though.

I'm sad that Detritus is not in, but to be done properly he'd either be a huge hulking animatronic, or a CGI thing, both of which probably would take too much budget away from a clearly overpaid casting director.

No Nobby is -ing travesty, though.

The golem in Going Postal looked just fine as a suit with animatronic mouth and expressions.
