    1. Do you have a channel which airs BBC and ITV series or maybe PBS? Although, this one will probably be expensive so I wouldn't be surprised if Amazon or Netflix jump in too like with that godawful Troy Fall of a Shitty, I mean City.

  2. James and Dafne seem to be a good choice to lead the BBC tv series epic. Despite his blue eyes,or maybe because of them, James'll make an authentic satanic Lord Asriel.

    1. Should be a good one, although I liked the film from about ten years ago as well.
