NPR's website has an audio interview about the BBC/PBS production of Gormenghast with the director, Andy Wilson. I've seen the first episode and it was really fascinating, and I got the books for Christmas last year, but I haven't read them yet. I'm not sure if I'll watch it on tv, or just go ahead and get it on DVD.
It's also nice because Andy Wilson also says really nice things about the actors on Doctor Who -- and that the ability of actors well to act in a fantasy setting. Though it is reminiscent of Neil Gaiman's comment about Neverwhere -- something along the lines that when it comes to fantasy, the BBC is like a sausage factory, it doesn't matter what you put in, out comes Doctor Who.
(It's also interesting because Andy Wilson said that he was interested in going to SF conventions...)
