No, said Aziraphale, it's ineffable.

Hi, Neil! First off, wanted to say thank you for all the writing you’ve done! You’ve managed to somehow be a part of one of my favorite movies from childhood (Coraline) and now one of my favorite shows (Good Omens).

I wanted to ask about Beelzebub’s hat, like what did you guys make it out of? I’ve been planning to make one for myself to wear out but have no idea where to start.

The first hat was improvised. We had big fly eyes that were meant to go over Anna Maxwell Martin’s eyes. The day before we were going to be shooting (her first scene was on the airbase) I went into the hair and makeup tent and was told that was not going to be possible. So we had the “eyes” and I suggested we just glue them to a hat and add wings and antennae. And the next day that was what Beelzebub wore. So it was literally a bowler hat with two things that looked like fly eyes glued to it and some bits of wings made of gauze and a couple of black pipe-cleaners.

See, that’s what the app is perfect for.
