 The documentary sets out to be neither mournful nor uplifting, but rather shows truth and honesty in a manner that is thought provoking.

Not too long after Terry Pratchett announced that he'd been diagnosed with a rare form of early onset Alzheimer's at the end of 2007, he agreed to allow the BBC to follow him around for a year and film his activities. From this was created a two hour documentary, shown in two parts, about how Terry Pratchett decided to tackle his predicament. I recorded them both episodes and watched them together this afternoon.

The documentary was a very personal insight into how almost every aspect Terry's life has been affected by Alzheimer's, from getting dressed to writing his Discworld novels and signing books. The documentary focuses mostly on Terry ( his wife and daughter were not filmed but were mentioned), and his personal assistant, Rob. For me I found it just as interesting to see Rob and hear his thoughts as those of Terry Pratchett. Up until now we, the fans, have really only heard what Terry is quoted as saying on TV and in newspaper articles, so it was nice to see someone speak who's probably as near to Terry Pratchett as one can get without being close family. Pretty much everywhere Terry  goes in his day to day routines as an author, Rob is always there in the background. I have met Rob at the filming of The Colour of Magic and thought he was nice and, of course like many I'm sure, thought what a cool job he has being Terry's PA. My opinion on that hasn't changed, it's still is a very cool job but now I think, after watching the documentary, it has a whole extra dimension to it, a deeper meaning than it did before.
