BBC America has announced that it is greenlighting The Watch, a new "punk rock thriller" series inspired by the City Watch subset of novels in English author Sir Terry Pratchett's Discworld series of books.
Co-producing The Watch with BBC America is Narrativia, which is run by Pratchett's daughter, Rhianna Pratchett. Simon Allen (The Musketeers) is the show's writer, while Hilary Salmon (Luther), Ben Donald, Rob Wilkins and Phil Collinson (Doctor Who) will executive produce.
The Watch will prominently feature Discworld characters like City Watch Captain Sam Vimes, Lady Sybil Ramkin, Carrot, Angua, Cheery, and Death. Allen's writing is said to be a reimagining of those Pratchett creations and others from the novels while still sticking close to their humor, heart, and ingenuity.
