I resisted watching this for a long time. Good Omens is one of my favourite books and the characters are very crystallised in my mind. While I like Martin Sheene enormously, his look and demeanour in trailers clashed with my mental image of Gabriel.

I was much mistakes however, they have done a fabulous job and it is a very enjoyable dramatisation. One thing that did stand out though was that the producers seem to have decided that Bill Nighy was too old for the role but taken Tennet aside and said just imagine you're playing Bill Nighy playing Crowley. Disagree, watch the opening scene on the wall.
