The Truth - Discworld Broadcasting Company Play for Today

Six actors and a sound effects person stood behind their microphones in traditional radio manner. They then performed for us, the second part of The Truth. ( The first part had overrun slightly and so Part 2 was re-scheduled for Sunday. )

Characters such as Otto, Mr Pins and Mr Tulip came to life thanks to a great cast, led by Ptim Williams as William de Worde. We heard and saw William unmasking his father, facing down Commander Vimes and then holding the final subtle conversation with Lord Vetinari and Sacharissa.

The cast included:

Tony Perkins
Elain Mein
Jacqui Lawrence
John Hicks (Lord Vetinari)
Pam Hicks
Rchard Atha-Nichols
A. Rouch

Jesca Yates
