The two leads shine as an angel and a demon facing down the apocalypse. But this adaptation of Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman's novel goes to hell when they're not around.

Seat reserved for Terry Pratchett at world premiere

There was an empty seat in the front row when Good Omens had its world premiere in London on Tuesday. But that's not because organisers had trouble filling the gigantic (and newly reopened) Odeon in Leicester Square - quite the opposite, the event was packed out. In fact, a seat was deliberately kept vacant for Terry Pratchett, the co-writer of the original novel, who died in 2015.

Some early critics of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's novel said it was short of good lines. But we could spend all day citing prize zingers ...

Sam Jordison, The Guardian, 15th January 2019

Fantasy credentials don't come much better than those of this Amazon series, which has been adapted by Neil Gaiman from the novel he co-wrote with the late Terry Pratchett. It stars David Tennant as a raffish demon who has formed an unlikely 6,000-year friendship with Michael Sheen's buttoned-down angel. When a looming apocalypse threatens their bromance, the pair team up to save the world. Psychedelic visuals, epic set-pieces and some wild hairpieces sported by Tennant suggest this could be a blast.
