Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 19, 2017 This is a great film and I watch it all year round, have read most of the books and saw the previous 2 films and this is better. Sadly it is in German and as I do not speak German and all the voices are dubbed it was a great disappointment. Although not named in the original book or the script, Pratchett decided the toymaker was named Joshua Isme, and his shop was Toys Is Me (a play on Both Nigel Planer, who plays Sideney and the voice of the Auditors, and Tony Robinson, who plays Mr Crumley, have been the readers for many of the audiobook editions of the Discworld novels, and have both had voice acting roles in the Discworld video games.

It's funny and a good story, I think David Jason isn't really suited to the role and the fact he is in Colour of Magic playing a different character spoils it, I certainly don't think he does Albert justice.

This is almost an unfair criticism, in that there is so *much* detail in the original book, and so much of it relies on previous books in the series.
