glydeart asked:

Hello~ Just wanted to ask something and confirm my overthinking (of uh) whether there was any significance in how Crowley and Aziraphale were framed(placed/position) in the 3rd episode of Good Omens. In their interactions throughout the years, Aziraphale would always be on Crowley's left side and that only changed when they had a talk the year 1967, when Aziraphale gave the holy water. Was there anything more to the aesthetic of the said episode?

neil-gaiman answered:

It always changes when they are in the car, because in the UK we drive on the left.

And the curtains were just fucking blue.

Except this is a really perceptive question. We took care to always put Aziraphale on the left of the screen and Crowley on the right (so Aziraphale is always on Crowley’s right), all the way through Good Omens. It’s a real thing, to the point where when you see them reversed on the bench in the park at the end, or even when they are buying ice creams, it’s a subliminal clue that something’s off. 

And we did it everywhere except in Crowley’s car, where we couldn’t do it. So if someone wants to ask about that, in terms of theme and imagery, I think they are absolutely allowed. And if someone wants to headcanon why that is in plot terms, I’m all for it.

4-the-chaotic-one asked:

I have a question that is probably just a dumb thing in my head. In the show, when Crowley is standing outside the burning bookshop, he has a little moment talking about littering. Now, I feel pretty confident it’s a representation of his mindset at that moment. My question is, it comes across to me (for many reasons I won’t bore with), like a fourth wall break. I know Crowley talks to himself a lot, but this feels different. Was it meant to feel that way? Or am I just imagining?

He was really talking to the people who were gathered around, particularly a police officer and a firefighter. But the scene was more powerful without them. (That whole scene is in the script book.)

First, I have lost count of how many times I have watched and read Good Omens, and am so glad you did this for Terry. Thank you. My question is, what is Aziraphale's opinion on e-books? On the one hand it saves space and trees, but on the other, no inscriptions or signed first editions.

I don’t think he knows they exist. 

If Crowley gave him a e-reader, it’s still in its box.

rebeloftheseas asked:

Why didn't you add the scene about the bird and the spaceship into the tv adaptation? That scene was really well written and hilarious.

It was. It’s also really long. If it had been in there, in order to work we’d need about 3 minutes, and we would have needed to take that 3 minutes from somewhere else in the episode.

But if anyone filmed it, you can watch Michael Sheen reading that whole sequence at the Town Hall in New York…

avatarofjord replied to your photoset “Wait, wait, so this is Sheen as Nero? Which means when Aziraphale was…”

I know it’s Sheen as Nero, but would you consider– Aziraphale if he fell. Radiant and sinister.

Go on, she said. Go on.

I mean, Aziraphale is pretty much only held back by wanting to do The Right Thing and being loyal to Heaven- he’d be a terror as a demon, honestly.

“Oh, it’s okay to indulge a bit! You deserve it, don’t you?”

“Oh my poor dear! You’ve been treated quite terribly. You what’s the best revenge? Living well! And I have just the thing…”

good omens Aziraphale as a devil is honestly a TERRIFYING thought
