The Discworld novels can be listened to in any order, but Hogfather is the fourth book in the Death series, a festive feast of darkness (but with jolly robots and tinsel too). If the real man in the red suit isn’t found by morning, there won’t be a morning. Belief is important in Discworld, particularly on the last night of the year when the time is turning. The stockings are hanging ready, the sherry and pies are waiting by the fireplace – but where is the jolly fat man with his sack? It’s not right to find Death creeping down chimneys and trying to say ‘Ho ho ho’ – but someone’s got to bring the little kiddies their presents. Twas the night before Hogswatch and all through the house…something was missing. Bill Nighy, Peter Serafinowicz, Sian Clifford
