Before he died in 2015, Terry Pratchett asked Neil Gaiman to make a television series of the internationally beloved novel they wrote together about the end of the world.And so, Neil began to write. And continued to write until he had six episodes that brought an angel, Aziraphale and a demon, Crowley (the only things standing between us and the inevitable Armageddon), to life for the screen.Contained between the covers of this book are the scripts that Neil wrote, which later turned into some of the most extraordinary television ever made. Take a tour behind the scenes with a text that reveals the secrets of the show, still has the missing bits and, sometimes, asks for the impossible. Step backstage and see the magic for yourself. You may just learn as much from the scenes that never made the final cut, as from those that did.
