The end of the world is nigh as we begin our Good Omens Episode 1 coverage. Based on the book Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman and starring David Tennant and Michael Sheen we’ll be discussing each of the six episodes of this series one by one. This is our spoiler filled discussion so as always make sure you’ve watched the episode before listening to the podcast.
Good Omens Episode 1 “In The Beginning” synopsis
In the Garden of Eden demon Crawley (David Tennant) tempts Eve and Adam to question the nature of good and evil leading to their expulsion from paradise. Worrying for their safety Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) the angel gives Adam his flaming sword to protect his new family. Thus begins a long-running friendship between angel and demon and a complicated relationship with humans.
Thousands of years later, the ineffable plan to bring about the apocalypse by introducing the Antichrist to an unsuspecting Earth needs Crowley to complete a simple task. Place the newly sweet baby Antichrist with a visiting US Cultural attache.
Believing his mission accomplished Crowley spends the next 11 years training The Adversary in evil ways while Aziraphale tries to negate his influence. It’s all for naught, due to some unexpected influence from some satanic nuns the true Antichrist is living happily with his friends in the small town of Lower Tadfield completely unaware of his true destiny.
