Only the second of Mr Briggs’ plays I’ve read (I acted in The Truth a year ago) and the better of the pair. The changes from the novel make more sense from an audience/ staging perspective and there’s a lot of great character moments. My only complaints would be that Vimes is more obviously a framing device here than in the novel and that we never discover - in this script - what happened to Polly’s brother (although we do in the novel).
