Retro television episode! Another one of Colin Baker's   finest DW Classics: the 80's returns....!✨🤖🤳📺📻🎧🎭

This is totally brilliant and very clever

cool - i wonder if anyone under 20 know what those sounds are :)

This is a bit like Harold Pinter's piece, Victoria Station.

this is really really great.  Colin Baker is excellent.  i am glad we have gotten these many adventures from his otherwise far too brief tenure.  

The audiobook of Mort is read by the BAFTA award-winning actor Sian Clifford (Fleabag; Vanity Fair; Quiz), with BAFTA and Golden Globe award-winning actor Bill Nighy (Love Actually; Pirates of the Caribbean; The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy; Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) reading the footnotes, and with Peter Serafinowicz (Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace; Shaun of the Dead) as the voice of Death. Featuring a new theme tune composed by James Hannigan. 

Death comes to us all. When he came to Mort, he offered him a job. 

Death is the Grim Reaper of the Discworld, a black-robed skeleton carrying a scythe who must collect a minimum number of souls in order to keep the momentum of dying, well...alive. 

He is also fond of cats and endlessly baffled by humanity. Soon Death is yearning to experience what humanity really has to offer...but to do that, he'll need to hire some help. 

It's an offer Mort can't refuse. As Death's apprentice he'll have free board, use of the company horse - and being dead isn't compulsory. It's a dream job - until Mort falls in love with Death's daughter, Ysabell, and discovers that your boss can be a killer on your love life....

The Discworld novels can be read in any order, but Mort is the first book in the Death series.

Mort by Terry Pratchett, read by Sian Clifford, Bill Nighy and Peter Serafinowicz
