In case anyone is interested, Small Gods starts a four-part dramatisation on BBC Radio 4 tonight at 11pm GMT. After the broadcast, the show will be available on the BBC website for download.

The only person I recognise in the cast is Patrick Barlow as Om; a good choice, I think.

See this link for details (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/smallgods/pip/383o1/)

Ok, I may be missing something but I can't figure out where one would go to listen to the thing.

If you're not able to listen to the broadcast in the UK the page I linked to should have a link appear which will allow you to listen to it after the broadcast has ended.

Actually; if you look in the top right of that page there is a "listen live" link which should get you the broadcast as it happens too.

Well, just got a chance to hear the playback (I missed the live reading). Great stuff. Though a bit of a shame that they're cutting out so much narration in the interest of moving things along.

Is there any way to save it to my computer?

I always loved the Eagle and Tortoise part, "What a friend I have in the Eagle."
I always think of a kind of Waking Life-esque little scene of a tortoise plummeting...

-Small Gods is a good book.

Indeed. It's probably my favorite book in the Discworld series. When the death scenes in a book can be considered inspiring, you know you've done something good.

Hello, all

Just found this forum by doing a search on Small Gods and Patrick Barlow, and hope it won't be considered too presumptuous if I ask if anyone recorded this show a year go, because I'd really, really like to get a copy.

Small Gods vies with Thief of Time as my favorite Pratchett book, and I've only recently discovered Barlow and am a big fan.

Can anyone help me out?
