DISCWORLD MOVIE Casting Couch

Magrat Garlick

Magrat Garlick - wet hen and Queen of Lancre.

Magrat is in essence a wet hen.

She is also the youngest of the Lancre coven of witches which includes Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and sometimes Agnes Nitt, oh yes and she's the Queen of Lancre.

All of the above puts her into a difficult position. How does she act...? Well she acts just like she always did, very much a woman in the century of the fruitbat, doing witchin' the modern way with fancy candles and runes, you know, the right magical ambiance.

Immortal Margat line: (to the Lancre Castle cook.)

"Go ahead, bake my quiche."
