Online Readthrough Saturdays 2nd, 16th, and 30th May - Good Omens

[wildeabandon]

Right. Next week we'll start doing Good Omens. There are six episodes, and we'll do them two at a time, with different casting for each episode. I'm planning on these being alternate weeks, with other readthroughs as yet to be determined on the inbetween weeks. Please fill in the poll if you think you're likely to come to any of them, but I'll do further polls to confirm attendance for the later ones closer to the time.

There's a list of significant characters on Wikipedia. Can you let me know any other casting preferences, especially for the first couple of episodes, in the comments.

Crowley would be more fun, but I'd no doubt be better at Aziraphale, which I think comes out as 'slightly prefer Crowley'.

When we do an in-person readthrough, I'd like to play Adam, because it's my next favourite part after A&C. I'm not sure whether that means I want to play Adam in this readthrough, but it probably does, especially if we're doing radio scripts for one and TV scripts for the other.

I would quite like to play Agnes Nutter or War.

I have a vague preference against playing Pepper. I think I might have a vague preference against playing Anathema, but I can't remember why. Maybe it's the accent. Speaking of which, my Scottish one tends toward the atrocious, so probably not Shadwell.

Shadwell, is almost required to have a terrible accent
