Hi! Another Good Omens fan here to offer praise/thanks & ask a Q! In the TV Companion chapter about Pollution it refers to them consistently as 'she', although does mention how the look of the character developed into something 'androgynous.' I know a lot of fans are excited to read the character as non-binary & I think that def fits what we see onscreen. But considering phrasing in the Companion, I'm curious if Pollution was ever consciously considered non-binary during production?
Yes, always, at least by me, by @lourdesfaberes, and by Douglas, the director.
Because of the way books are made and publication happens, the Companion would have needed been written before I had to fight my small battles about using “they” as a pronoun in God’s narration, and so Matt, the author, wouldn’t have heard the narration for episode 4 before he wrote it. (I should have caught the pronouns in the Companion, but I was making the show itself.)
