It's on Netflix, if you have that service. I've seen it too and like most of Stephen King's adaptations, it's just OK. Mark

Neverwhere was a somewhat rushed and not very good production in the 90's - I think it was done by the BBC. It would change the story dramatically if they shifted the location from the original London to anywhere else, as some of the main chatacters in the book take their names directly from some of the London Underground stations.

Think along the lines of an Angel named Islington. Mark

It did seem rushed - I remember feeling that if Lenny He try hadn't been involved, it might have been a whole lot better. Lenny Henry's productions seemed to always feel like they hadn't been finished properly. Peter Capaldi played the Angel at Islington.

That reads as a totally bizarre and off-the-wall show. But at least there's no police detective involved, which makes a change. Mark
