While Reading and Walking

neil-gaiman:

Like many of my favourite lines in the book, it didn’t make the cut because the series is 5 hours long, and has to have room for visual things, and the book is about 12 hours long when spoken. (There’s undoubtedly an alternate universe where I decided to make a longer version of Good Omens, in which more of our favourite lines made it onto the screen.) I love everything that Adam says to the Metatron and Beelzebub in the book, but was also concerned that we’d been standing on that tarmac for 12 minutes, and I needed to keep the scene moving.
