11th August, 2020.
Yes: today’s the day when I’ll be doing a lot of filming.
Those Teaser video’s don’t make themselves.
Frankly, though?
I’ll be doing that, after I’ve had a walk around the block.
Which does two things.
Gets me some exercise.
And gets me away from the noise of the washing machine.
As much as I like clean t-shirts?
The noise from my washing machine is …
Loud …

You’ve possibly worked I’m a Terry Pratchett fan: and have been, since the mid-1980s, when I first came across his work.
I’ve been floating around the ’Net, whilst writing this: and came across
this piece from the well known
The Wertzone blog.
It seems the BBC America crew producing The Watch series have been making more changes — unwarranted changes — than I thought.
Most fans will be able to about the major Watch characters.
Including the fact that
Captain Carrot was adopted by dwarves, and that
Cheery is a female dwarf fighting hard to get recognised as a woman.
To quote The Wertzone?
“Cheery had also been changed from a young dwarfish woman anxious to prove her worth in her patriarchal society whilst also retaining her femininity to a young, non-binary human raised by dwarfs, borrowing Carrot’s background and story for no immediately obvious reason.”
Frankly?
The BBC America series is sounding more and more like an utter travesty …
I’m urging anyone I know to go nowhere near the damn thing.
