Hogfather

From the imagination of best-selling novelist Terry Pratchett comes a deliriously twisted take on the holiday season. In the parallel universe of Discworld, it's the night before Hogswatch, that special time when the Hogfather delivers presents to the kiddies at the mid-winter festival in the medieval melting pot of Ankh-Morpork. But when the Hogfather is kidnapped by a cadre of villains called the Auditors, the inspiring belief in Hogswatch could be lost forever. So could humanity, unless the Auditors' evil plan is undone ASAP.

  • "It's the night before Hogswatch, usually a time of joy on Discworld. A night when overexcited children are kept awake by the thoughts of what presents they may find inside their stockings, once they are allowed to stop pretending to be asleep. But this year, all is not right with the holiday season!"@en
  • "Fantasy drama based on Terry Pratchett's best-selling novel. It's the night before Hogswatch, usually a time of joy on Discworld, but there are suspicious going-on and the criminal underworld is abuzz. The beloved Hogfather (Shend) - the jolly bearer of glee and pork-related gifts for children everywhere - has vanished. Suddenly, Discworld's entire mythical system is under threat. The fate of this magical time rests in the hands of a very motley group: A band of wizards headed up by a mystical university president named Mustrum Ridcully (Joss Ackland), a loyal manservant called Albert (David Jason), a level-headed governess called Susan Sto Heilt (Michelle Dockery), and her grandfather, who happens to be - Death (Marnix van den Broeke)."
  • "Television mini-series from the UK. Screen adaptation of the Terry Pratchett novel. In Discworld, a parallel universe, Hogfather prepares to deliver presents at the midwinter festival of Hogswatch, but the Auditors have other plans."
  • "Based on Terry Pratchett's best-selling Discworld book series. A winter festival called Hogswatch is ruled over by the Hogfather - a fat jolly man with tusks who doles out gifts to nice little children."@en
  • "Een gouvernante moet voor zonsopgang de Hogfather (Berevaar), een soort vermomde kerstman, hebben gevonden, want anders vergaat de Schijfwereld waarin ze woont."
