with The Dark Material Podcast. Daemons, TV adaptations, and biscuits

This week my guests are Amy and Iain, the hosts of the wonderful and very popular The Dark Material Podcast. Amy and Iain are in the middle of a chapter-by-chapter read along of Philip Pullman's best selling Dark Materials series of books. We talk about the surprising things they've discovered while researching Pullman's work, how they manage to persevere with their mammoth project, and the experience of interviewing actors and creatives who worked on the recent BBC/HBO adaptation of the books. They've got great things to say about how TV adaptation can add to the richness of books, and we wonder why talking about daemons is such good pub chat. I also get an exclusive on Amy's and Iain's favourite types of biscuit (Iain does something quite odd with his). You can listen to The Dark Material Podcast here: https://www.darkmaterialpodcast.com/ ....................... Unfinished/Unpublished celebrates creative projects that never got finished, that have yet to be finished, or that never made it out into the world. I ask my guests to search their bottom drawers and the abandoned corners of their laptops to rediscover secret and incomplete schemes.
