1. Editorial
Welcome to issue 122. This month we are back to business after
celebrating our 10th anniversary last month. Please excuse any
empty drinks containers you may find in the area.
----------
I have discovered this month that AOL appears to have decided that
Discworld Monthly is spam. Last month over 900 AOL.COM messages
were returned as undeliverable and therefore were un-subscribed from
the mailing list. If you know somebody on AOL that is no longer
receiving Discworld Monthly please ask them to re-subscribe. I
tried contacting AOL but couldn't find any way of getting in contact
with them about this.
----------
We would like to thank Steve Ryder for sending us an ASCII Venn
diagram of bearded programmers. We decided however that it would
probably get messed up for anyone who doesn't use fixed fonts in
their email.
----------
Don't forget, if you visit a play or a talk and would like to let
the world know about it, please feel free to email your review to
oook@discworldmonthly.co.uk and we will consider it for publication.

2. News
From the Headquarters of the Discworld Jamboree 2007, Procurements
and Pronouncements Sub-Committee, Cunning Artificer Department.
Embargo: None
Date: 25 May 2007
The Discworld Jamboree 2007 now has its own new and very shiny
website with all the details anyone could need - the when, where,
what, how much and who, though possibly not the why. Any interested
Discworld fan now need only go to: http://www.discworldjamboree.com/
Better still, there is now a Members' Area which displays the Rules
of the Ankh-Morpork & District Scouting Association (Unaffiliated)
and the Oath, together with the Minutes of the Meeting to Form the
Proposed Ankh-Morpork Federation of Scouts (in the chair, Captain
Carrot).
To access this area you have to have to have joined up to attend the
Jamboree, or have purchased our rather splendid 'scouters' goodie
bag. If you have done all of these things then mail
discworldjamboree@gmail.com to receive the appropriate password.
These have been posted at the request of the Chief Scout himself, so
that those attending the Jamboree will fully understand the aims of
the A-M Scouting Movement, the importance of personal hygiene
(especially while under canvas), and what size battle axe is
acceptable in a camping environment.
The Discworld Jamboree 2007 will be held on a field in Wincanton,
Somerset, between 3 and 5 August 2007. Amongst other attractions
it will feature the Witch Trials and a Gang Show. It will be
attended by the Chief Scout, Mr Terry Pratchett, ably supported by
Mr Stephen Briggs and Mr Colin Smythe.
In creating the Jamboree website, we are indebted to the Chief
Scout, Mr Terry Pratchett, and to Black Widow Web Design.

Some of the ladies that post on the Discworld Stamps forum
(http://www.discworldstamps.com/forum) have taken part in a tasteful
yet risque calendar photo shoot!
It's all for charity and the only way to get a copy of the calendar
is to pre-order one! The calendar costs 10.50 GBP and to get yours
send a cheque made payable to T. Hardcastle to 36 Penn View,
Wincanton, Somerset, BA9 9NE.
The first 100 sold will be numbered. Should demand out-strip
initial supplies future re-prints will not be numbered.

It appears that Joe Schaumburger editor of Wossname, the newsletter
of the North American Discworld Society, is retiring from Wossname

wish Joe all the best with his congestive heart failure condition.
Annie Mac who has taken over the role is now in need of people to

form of new media is eligible including web, mobile and red button
interactive TV, or any cross-platform combination. The emphasis is
on the creative approach and how the programme has been conceived
with new media as an integral part of the production.")
I also received an email from Ian Sharples at MOB Films, in which he
wrote:
"On the awards and such like, the run down is
*Winners of the Broadcast Press Guild, Best Multi Channel Programme
award
*Nominated for Royal Television Society (RTS) for Drama Serial, but
sadly didn't win
*We have received nominations for the BAFTA Craft awards [held on 22
April], the technical awards for the crew, and we have two, not
surprisingly, Gavin Finney our Director of Photography is nominated
for the Photography and Lighting Category, [he was a runner-up to

On May 16th, Alan Johnson the Education Secretary in England has put
together a list of the top 160 books for teenage boys. The idea of
the list is to encourage more boys to read for pleasure at secondary
school.
The list surprisingly didn't include any Harry Potter novels but
does include The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy and A Hat Full of
Sky.
Alan Johnson has promised to give every secondary school in England
the chance to chose 20 books from the list free.

Ref. the ref. to "Shottle Bop" ... there's a much older, and more
relevant, predecessor: "The Magic Shop" by H.G.Wells. It's told by
Dad, who goes for a walk with his young son Gip ... toyshop found
in otherwise derelict area, strange proprietor with extensible nose,
interior has a tendency to change when you're not looking ... shop
later found replaced by blank wall ... afterwards, Gip claims his
toy soldiers march about, but only when he's alone. (Genesis of
Woody & Buzz, perhaps?) I read this in a very - and I mean VERY -
old magazine belonging to my grandparents: a home-bound copy of "The
Strand" no less, with original-publication Sherlock Holmes in the
front. I was about 55 years younger then, so please forgive the lack
of pin-point accuracy. A hardback reprint of the story (34pp. or so)
is available, and it's in various anthologies. It's not the idea
that matters though, it's what you make of it. TP's shops (general
and music) appear and disappear, but apart from that they're all his
own.

* From:"Steve Walker"

I read your personal pen-pictures with interest in Issue 121, and
have something to offer on the subject of beards. I have been a
serious club-cyclist since my teenage, and any cyclist with a long
beard is usually the owner of a trike (disclaimer - I don't have
either beard or trike). Now when I read that "all programmers have
beards", I wondered how many of them are active Tricycle Association
members? We were watching "Eggheads" a week or so ago, and one of
the challengers wore a long beard; my wife Christine immediately
spoke my thoughts, "I bet he rides a trike!". The cartoonist Johnny
Helms always portrays trikies wearing beards, he's been amusing the
cycling world for several decades.
So you see, it depends on the circles you move in which determine
your assumptions on life.
On the subject of casting for films, when I heard about The
Hogfather, and Tony Robinson's appearance, I immediately pictured
him as Nobby Nobs, but then I have probably been watching Blackadder
too much. Nigel P***r should have been in Medium Dave's gang, now
there's an ideal candidate for Rincewind if you ask me! Who would
you really like to see as Rincewind? Go on, put it to the readers
of DWM...
----------
*
* From: "Richard Hardie"
*
You mention that 'A certain man of letters' (I presume Terry) is
doing a write up for the Scouts Discworld Jamboree in your current
DWM issue.
Terry is, of course, the proud owner of the Scout Association Red
Neckerchief. This is presented to members of the Scouts and Guides
Associations who have been in the Gang Show, or helped in it for 5
years. Terry co-wrote one of the scenes with me for the 2002 show
"Timescape" and actually acted out the scene (the kidnap of Terry
Pratchett) so we could film it and show it each night on stage. I
presented the necker to Terry on behalf of the Association and he is
still the only person to have been given the necker as an outsider.
You kindly reviewed a video of the show and said that you don't like
musicals, but strangely quite liked this one! Good taste, that man!
.....as Ridcully would say.
DWM replies: Richard gets this month's Letter Of The Month.

As a long term Pratchett fan I am very embarrassed to ask this
question but in Nightwatch and Thud reference is made to Vimes (my
favourite character) having arrested the Patrician at some point in
the past. I know Carrot arrested him in Guards but I really am
struggling to remember when Vimes did. Please put me out of my
misery!
----------
*
* From: "Felicity Cobbing"
*
I wonder if you or anyone out there would know if the character of
Sam Vimes was based, in part, on Charles Warren, Commissioner of the
Met from 1886 to 1888. During this brief time, he oversaw Queen
Victoria's Golden Jubilee, and was the Man In Charge when the Ripper
murders terrorized Whitechapel. He seems to have shared Vimes'
concern with policeman's footwear and an interest in the role of
seamstresses in polite society, amongst other things. He also
travelled to exotic climes, though I'm not sure if he was ever
presented with a dish of sheep's eyeballs. Either that or are all
policemen a type?
----------
*
* From: "Erin Seis"
*
OK, as a Canadian I recognize that you lot for the UK may just be
surprised that I didn't know this but here it goes. I was flipping
through a book of baby names and came across:
Esme (Es-MAY) origin: Scottish meaning: esteemed
All this time when Nanny Ogg was calling her Esme, I thought it was
just a short form of Esmerelda, I had no idea it may actually be a
title. Cool!
----------
We received several letters about the news that David Jason will be
playing Rincewind in the upcoming adaptation of Colour of Magic.
The following letter from Rosemary Caswell is typical of the many we
received.
*
* From: "Rosemary Caswell"
*
David Jason as Rincewind? Oh surely not. He is a splendid actor
and a pleasant man, but not Rincewind. For a start Rincewind is a
young man, well youngish, and fit and agile - well, fast on his pins
at any rate.
This is one version of the book that I think I, for one, will not be
watching.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
4. DiscTrivia
This month I will be asking questions about Interesting Times.
Q1. What colour is The Quantum Weather Butterfly?
Q2. What did Ridcully think Rincewind is?
Q3. How many Zs was Rincewind offered for his new hat?
a) One
b) Two
c) Three
d) Two times four
Q4. Rincewind was given a document written by Twoflower. What was
it called?
Q5. What town does Twoflower come from?
The results, as always, appear at the end of this issue.

5. Review: Wincanton Lite Event - May 2007
Reviewed by Jason Anthony
Originally there wasn't going to be a May Wincanton event in 2007
because Bernard (The Cunning Artificer) had planned to run the
Jamboree instead, but pressure from regular Wincanton visitors
meant that Bernard had to arrange a kind of non-event event, hence
the "Lite" title.
The weekend of the event coincided with Terry's birthday so Terry
was understandably unable to attend. Whilst it is nice to see Terry
at events and it is always great to hear what Terry has to say about
future books, not having him there didn't spoil the weekend too
much.
Around twenty of us converged on one of the local curry houses in
what is becoming a bit of a tradition. Even Barrie the Discworld's
special jeweller managed to get to the curry house on time. After
an excellent meal we staggered up to the Dolphin to finish the
evening off with a drink or two and great company in the hall of
shame.
At 1pm on Saturday we headed for the beer garden of the Dolphin for
a Dodgeball tournament. I took part in the first game but we were
beaten by a better team. So my official involvement in the game was
quickly over. Having said that, the rules were a bit woolly and
being an Ankh-Morpork game the rules were more guidelines than
actual rules, so we set to work seeing how far the rules could be
bent. Adding extra players to a team seemed to be the most
effective solution. Changing the shape of the nylon roped off arena
was tried but a nasty rope burn to my hand when somebody tugged the
rope put paid to that. Amazingly three weeks later my hand still
has the scars from the burn!
The Soul Cake Duck bonnet competition was at 4pm, where ladies (and
a few gents) showed off their best bonnets. Dave Hodges, being his
usual inventive self, turned up with a car bonnet which he
apparently found on the way down to the event.
I spent an interesting half hour in the shop with Bernard, Isobel
and about half a dozen fans discussing the new Colour of Magic
movie. We came to the conclusion that we should let the Mob decided
who to cast as they know their job better that we do. After that
Bernard had to shut the shop to head off to Terry's birthday party.
We all made our way to either the Bear or the Dolphin for food. I
had tickets for the Dolphin and enjoyed a very nice meal with some
great friends. After the meal we headed down to the Bear for the
evening's charity auction. The auction went well and over 2000 GBP
was raised for charity.
After the auction, the secretariat of the Discworld Stamp forum gave
out some of their wonderful awards, three silver and one gold.
Unfortunately none of the Silver Loupe award winners were at the
event. I was truly honoured to receive the Gold Loupe Award for my
work on Discworld Monthly. I must admit I was pretty drunk by the
time I got the award so if my speech sounded like it came from an
old drunkard - it was because it did! It is a lovely award and I am
very proud to have been given it.
Much drinking continued until the early hours of the morning.
Even though it was a lite event it was a lot of fun. I had a great
time meeting up with existing friends and meeting new ones. Here's
to many more Wincanton weekends. I can't wait for the Jamboree when
I will be able to meet up with everyone again.
I have uploaded a few pictures of the event at:

6. Competitions
This month we have a Limited Edition Hogfather DVD to give away. The
copy numbered 13324 was purchased by myself before I realised I was
getting a copy from another source. It is still in its shrinkwrap
and has never been opened.
In order to win this copy of the DVD all you need to do is answer
the following question:
Q1. Which two actors have voiced Death (one for Hogfather and the
other for the animated versions of Soul Music and Wyrd Sisters)?
Please send your answer to competitions@discworldmonthly.co.uk by
Friday 22nd June 2007.
----------
Last month we were offering, in conjunction with The Cunning
Artificer, one of the Jamboree goodie bags that will retail at 20
GBP normally. Details of the contents of the pack can be found on
the Cunning Artificer's website but one of the highlights will be
the introduction to Discworld Scouts written by a certain Mr
Pratchett.
All you needed to do to enter was answer one simple question:
Q1. How much is the camping cost per adult per night at the
Jamboree?
The correct answer was a very reasonable 7.50 GBP per adult per night.
The randomly selected winner of the goodie bag is Irene Jackson of
Suffolk, England.

Discworld Jamboree visit http://www.discworldjamboree.com/

7. Review: Hogfather Limited Edition DVD
Reviewed by Jason Anthony
Hogfather has been released in two DVD editions. A standard edition
and a limited to 20,000 Limited Collectors Edition. This must make
Hogfather the biggest piece of Discworld merchandise outside of the
novels.
The limited edition DVD comes in a gatefold case that is encased in
a cut out cardboard sleeve that features a view of Great A'tuin. The
cut out allows a view of the cast that appears on the gatefold.
Also included in the limited edition pack is a small card with a
brief message about the DVD from Terry. The final extra is code
that can be used to unlock part of the Hogfather DVD website. It
took me ages to find the code (it is particularly well hidden) but I
won't tell you where it is you can have the fun of locating it
yourself. Once entered you get to see some very interesting video
footage not available elsewhere including a completely Computer
Generated Death.
The first disc contains the full three hour adaptation and it gives
the option of watching part one or two separately or as a composite
whole. You can also choose which chapter you wish to go to.
The second disc contains the extras such as the 12 days of Hogswatch
that was originally shown on both SkyOne's Red Button and on
SkyOne's website. If also features The Whole Hog: The Making of
Hogfather which provides a fascinating insight into the adaptation.
There is also an extensive photo gallery and a number of trailers
for other fox films such as the Silver Surfer.
I am not normally a fan of logos and copyright warnings found on
many DVDs that just seem to want to slow you down from watching the
disc. However, this time I felt having the 20th Century Fox logos
and copyright warnings made the adaptation seem more like a movie.
I think the fact that nearly an hour of adverts have been removed
also makes the DVD a pleasure to watch.
The DVD is region 2 encoded which means that it is designed to run
in most of Europe. Some US fans have found that with the right
software they can watch the DVD on their PCs. I understand that
most DVD players in Australia are also capable of playing region 2
discs.
If you enjoyed the adaptation on Sky you will love the DVD version.
See section 6 for a chance to win a copy.
