English Summary:

Terry Pratchett's Going Postal is a two-part television film adaptation of Going Postal by Terry Pratchett, adapted by Richard Kurti and Bev Doyle and produced by The Mob.

After years of undertaking confidence tricks, Moist von Lipwig is caught by the Ankh-Morpork City Watch, and is sentenced to death under his current alias, Albert Spangler. After a brief spell in prison he is hanged by the neck, but not killed. He is brought before Patrician Havelock Vetinari who likens himself to an angel, offering Moist a change of life. He gives Moist the choice to either become the new Postmaster or be executed by falling down a deep pit.

Moist immediately attempts to escape but is caught by his parole officer Mr Pump, a golem, and brought to the rundown post office where he meets his two staff: the elderly Junior Postman Tolliver Groat and his assistant, the pin-obsessed Stanley Howler. Moist learns that the post office has been superseded by semaphore towers known as "Clacks" which send messages using light signals which are faster than sending letters by post and owned by the unscrupulous Reacher Gilt.

Initially Moist attempts to escape his duty, but realises that he cannot get away without overcoming Mr Pump, so he goes to the Golem Trust to help understand how golems are created and controlled. There he meets Adora Belle Dearheart for whom he begins to develop feelings. His skills prove to be useful in making the post office popular again, both when he invents the postage stamp in an attempt to raise money (which proves to be highly successful), and when he starts an express post service to neighbouring cities.

 

German Summary:

Der bislang unverbesserliche Betrüger Feucht von Lipwig wird unter seinem falschen Namen hingerichtet. Diese war aber nur fingiert: Lord Vetinari, Alleinherrscher von Ankh-Morpork auf der Scheibenwelt, gibt ihm eine „zweite Chance“ und zwingt ihn, der neue Postminister zu werden. Von Lipwig bekommt den Golem Pumpe19 als Bewährungshelfer zur Seite gestellt, der ihn unter anderem an Fluchtversuchen hindern soll. Zusammen sollen sie das marode Postamt von Ankh-Morpork wiederaufbauen.

Nachdem er Lord Vetinaris Angebot angenommen hat, startet von Lipwig sogleich einen Fluchtversuch, der aber von Herrn Pumpe vereitelt wird. Daraufhin geht der Minister widerwillig an die Arbeit und wird beim Betreten des Postamtes nicht nur mit Bergen nicht zugestellter Post, sondern auch mit seinen einzigen Mitarbeitern konfrontiert: Dem greisen Juniorpostboten Herr Grütze, der noch nie befördert wurde, weil nie ein Postminister lange genug im Amt war, um ihn zu befördern, und dem Postbotenlehrling Stanley Heuler, der ein extrem leidenschaftlicher Sammler von Nadeln ist. Als Lipwig das Postamt verlassen will, erläutert ihm Pumpe, dass er immer wisse, wo sich der Postminister aufhalte. Währenddessen rutscht von Lipwig ein Brief in die Hand, worauf er beschließt, diesen zuzustellen.
