BBC developing a live-action Discworld series

Trying not to get my hopes up like all the other times, but they're up nonetheless.

I hope there's a decent budget this time. And I hope that David Jason isn't allowed anywhere near it (although, ironically, Nicholas Lyndhurst would make a good Nobby). Oh, and I hope they remember it's a fantasy world, not Britain, so peppering the cast with Welsh or Geordie, or any other regional accents, will not make any sense. Please just neutral accents like GoT.

Hope it's a success so they'll make the other books as well, especially the wizard's...I want to see a high budget Unseen University up there kicking the memory of Hogwarts into oblivion where it belongs.
