Great interviewer - could tell she knew the material, she asked good, pointed questions, was very polite, and let him answer. Could do with more like her nowadays
Amazing isn't it? He talks about being 'the most unknown published author' and look how he ended up. I really miss the Discworld and wonder what people in it are doing now that Sir Terry is gone.
You're really just going to go and make me tear up like this? I never looked at it this way, halfway through the series and now I don't want it to end.
I feel like Rhinana could have had a stab at it. Maybe not carried on anything that existed but published something set in that world. Or written a game set in that world as she is primarily a game script writer.
He became the best philosopher ever. I live the way he thinks...I say 'thinks' not 'thought' ad I must believe he is somewhere in the 'after this life'.
I watched this interview not long after it got uploaded and I really liked how down to Earth Terry Pratchett seemed, so I decided to get into the Discworld books. I'm now reading the fifth book Sourcery after reading the first four multiple times. I've really enjoyed how fun they are, and how rich and vibrant the world of the stories is. They are truly inspiring.
I've been in a really bad reading slump lately, picked up Hogfather from work and I'm already more than halfway through. I've had so much fun and it's really helped with my depression :)
Remember up until JK Rowling he was britains best selling author and until he got his diagnosis of Alzheimer's you really didn't see much of him anywhere. I've been a fan since about 95 and I had never seen him interviewed until he started to raise awareness. In comparison JK Rowlings every opinion seems to be international news.
The only Pratchett "for children" books I've read were the Bromeliad trilogy. They were easily as good as the Discworld "adult" stuff. I've yet to find anything by him that I didn't love

And very beautiful
What a woman

It would be ice to see what Rincewind and the luggage have been doing, but sadly we will never know.

Discworld books are some of the most fun I’ve ever had reading. He makes me laugh out loud with his wit and unexpected turns of phrase.
Same
I miss the excitment of a new Discworld book coming out, but I'm so glad his family decided there would be no more after he left us.
A true genius.
Yeah I couldn’t imagine anyone make it come to life like Terry he was truly a genius and his writing really does take you into the world

I miss Terry so much...
I love the discworld Terry built. I have a few autographed hard backs and each time I met him he was a really nice gentleman
I miss him, a lot.

Smart Lady Good at her job. Stunning really
Looks good and also listens? Don't find it often
TP was magically funny and entertaining, amazing story-teller
Terry Pratchett and Bill Bryson. My two favourite authors
His voice is exactly what I expected

Discworld novels are great for that. Everyone I read makes me laugh and it's so easy to shut out the mundane world with his books!
Hogfather is amazing. Really good book

thank you for wonderful memorie
A gentleman if there was ever one! We should have a statue of sir Terry in outer Mongolia
Great interview
Lovely man, great writer.
Kind Sir all of us Tiffany Aching's and Granny Weatherwax's salute you! You are missed beloved one. You are missed. Except by "Death" of course...
Fun fact when he was knighted he was annoyed about not getting a sword so he got 1 made for him and when he died he had his hard drives flattened
"I dont have a sequin to my name" 😂
Ah before the black wizard gear days
Interestingly, he seemed a good deal older than he appears here when we went with him to film in borneo in 1995?

GNU Sir Terry
GNU Sir Terry
I hope that I will be allowed into heaven so that Sir Pratchett and I can sit down and make little worlds full of little stories
Gone too soon! R.I.P Sir Terry
never be another
Librarians rule.......ook.
Eeek?
@@LimitedCheetah ook! Love Terry Pratchett, miss him so much.
He was only 44 here! I don't mean to be rude but damn! It's funny how quickly some men age.
Must’ve been all that wisdom taking it’s toll. It’s a terrible affliction really.
Only because he’s bald. If he had a full head of hair, even grey hair, he would look younger. Not that it matters, he’s a genius
His books should be studied in schools.
I agree
GNU STP
OOK!
@@JJ-Streaming I couldn't agree more
