#Dottie and Sadie

[noneorother]

I don’t know if I should ruin special spoilers for people, but Dottie and Sadie are a running Terry joke, and a clue…

take a look at page 46 of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novel “Night Watch”.

Want to know why Crowley is married to Sadie, and not Dottie..?

What do we know about the Season 2 episodes?

There will be 6 episodes.

So far, two specific episodes have been announced (although it has not been confirmed which episodes they are):

"Jam Factory" episode, which contains a magic poster covered in jam

"Girls Night Out" episode, in which we will spend a lot of time with Dottie and Sadie (Crowley and Aziraphale's wives)

The Plot

First, a detailed plot summary of Season 2:

"Crowley and Aziraphale, who in this season are both undertakers in Birmingham, and their wives, Dottie and Sadie, go on holiday together to the South of France. The boys get very drunk at a wine tasting, and their wives have to bring them home to the hotel, where Aziraphale (still drunk) puts on the gorilla costume he finds in a closet. Imagine Crowley's shock, when he sees a gorilla climbing out of the window of the hotel! Now, it just so happens that a master spy who looks exactly like Aziraphale hid the microfilm plans for a missile in Crowley's bathroom, and has returned to obtain the microfilm, which is hidden in a book of naughty seaside postcards that Dottie found earlier and threw out of the window. When the police turn up looking for the gorilla, they find the master spy but think it's actually Aziraphale. Fortunately Sadie realises that the pineapple-shaped birthmark has vanished from Aziraphale's left elbow which means that he's an imposter and she and Dottie set out to rescue him in his gorilla costume from the circus that he's been sold to by an unscrupulous animal welfare centre operative. And then there are lots of cats and horses. The end."

Additional plot details:

Crowley and Aziraphale and their wives will go on their honeymoons at the same time in the same little French town, during the annual marmalade convention.

Aziraphale will have a new Season 2 Catchphrase - "Ooh-heck, it's the wife!" (at one point, he will shout this whole clutching a toilet plunger)

Several stories will be set in the tomato sauce factories they all work in.

Dottie's phone will be broken at the outing to Blackpool.

In episode 4, it will be revealed that Dottie and Sadie and their husbands have unknowingly all been booked in the same hotel room.

There will be a pie fight scene at the inflatable gorilla factory (which will clarify a lot about Aziraphale and Crowley's interpersonal relationships).

Aziraphale will attempt to summon a magic gorilla, in order to obtain one of the four fruits of the apocalypse (e.g. the Banana of Doom).

The Giant Pretzel will give Crowley a magic peach.

There will be a very moving scene when Dottie thinks that Sadie is pregnant but actually Sadie is planning to get a kitten.

This detail about the kitten(s?): "The arrival of the kitten will also be delightful, but I'm not promising it doesn't mean that the season won't end with the patter of tiny feet. Let's just say that two sets of twins would mean double the fun for everybody."

Aziraphale will be dead by the time Crowley goes on his secret mission. Aziraphale's wife will inherit the book shop, which she runs with her brother.

This detail about Gabriel's story arc: "Gabriel came to Earth to go on holiday to Spain with Aziraphale and Crowley and their wives, Dottie and Sadie. He's working as an art critic and when he sees the picture hanging in Crowley's bed and breakfast bedroom he realizes it's an original painting by Jerry Picasso (Pablo's baby brother) and resolves to steal it on the same night that the neighborhood Dress as a Burglar and Win a Fridge competition is held. Hilarity ensues."

The flashback scenes will be of where Crowley and Aziraphale both met their wives.

Season 2 will end with a dance-off mix-up on a French Nudist Beach, with several enormous inflatable animals and Aziraphale's mother-in-law dressed in a gorilla costume.

On Goncharov's influence on Season 2:

"The whole of Season 2 of Good Omens was inspired by Goncharov. Dottie and Sadie, Aziraphale and Crowley's wives, were basically my take on Perdita and Brigitte, the two tourists who worked in the condom factory, and the whole Goncharov helium balloons and clowns sequence. For that matter, without Goncharov it would never have occurred to me to have made the comedy in episode 4 the fact that Dottie and Sadie and their husbands have unknowingly all been booked in the same hotel room, or to have had the Archangel Gabriel played by a chinchilla. "

Only just heard of the fictional fictional characters, Dottie and Sadie, and already can’t help but picture them as Crowley and Aziraphale’s neighbours at the end of season 3 played by Olivia Colman and Catherine Tate.

Sadie (Catherine) likes to have a drink with Crowley while Dottie (Olivia) likes cooking with Aziraphale and tries to get Crowley to eat more.

[politeanarchy]

this is completely idiotic but I was thinking about Dottie and Sadie, and how they're fictional characters, but they're not real fictional characters, they're fictional fictional characters. if you see what I mean

[yetrop]

Season three looks awesome so far!

(Based on one of Neil Gaiman’s definitely not-at-all sarcastic replies to a season 3 question, as seen in the final image)

[a-bisexual-panicking]

ok we know about the jokes that Neil Gaiman makes when someone asks for Good Omens s3 and he gives these absurd replies with Crowley and Azi's "wives" but imagine how crazy would it be if in s3 he actually included two characters named Dottie and Sadie

[thedetectivethepirate]

Me, after hearing the Tumblr notification alert, going to check what special spoilers Neil has posted today

[meowdejavu]

consider: shortly after aziraphale and crowley move into their new cottage, they each happen to meet one half of the couple next door. let's say this couple is named dottie and sadie, because why not?

so first aziraphale meets dottie, who comes by to drop off some banana bread and welcome them to the neighborhood. she spots crowley working on the flower beds and innocently asks if that's his husband. it catches aziraphale off guard and sounds so nice that he answers with "yes indeed, my husband anthony!" but he frets afterward because he can't possibly tell crowley he said that! they just moved in! it's way too soon!!!

a few days later, crowley meets sadie, who mentions that her wife spoke to his husband the other day. in response, crowley goes along with it like "uhh yes, my husband loved her bread!" and then he frets because he can't possibly tell aziraphale he said that! they're still getting settled! it's way too soon!!!

so they're living in fear of the other finding out that they told the neighbors they're married, without realizing they both want exactly the same thing.

anyway if you also like this scenario you may want to read the new chapter of my post-canon cottage fic ✨

Neils Tumblr answers led me to do this (part 3)

The wedding ceremony, if one could call it that, is being held at an indoor movie theatre that is currently showing Fertilize the Blaspheming Bombshell starring Bo Hopkins. They were able to close the theater as no one has come to see this film in quite some time even though the popcorn is made with just the right amount of butter and Sheila Caan is wearing a very skimpy bikini. Crowley is exquisite in his choice of wedding attire. High heeled snakeskin boots with gothic black feather shrug cape and parachute pants and he accessorizes well with his hair pulled back in a matching snakeskin stretchy headband adorned with multi-colored rhinestones. No one will ever call him disaster coded again! Sadie looks radiant in her pirate outfit complete with wooden peg leg and tri-cornered hat with veil. She has repeatedly refused to explain the peg leg. When it comes time for the vows the officiate, Roger The Postman, turns first to Crowley who says: “I, take you, to be my awful wedded wife, to have and to scold, from this day fast-forward for better but not worse, for richer, sans poorer, forget sickness only in health, to loathe and to cherish, till suspicious death do we part” Roger, then nods at Sadie who then recites hers: “I take you to be my lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, until death do we part, or you turn into a zombie. Because then we’re going to have to start seeing other people.”. There are no rings to be exchanged as Sadie claims wedding rings are just trappings of the patriarch. So, instead, they do the Jiveshake. Crowley and Sadie then retire to the area behind the screen. They make love behind the screen while people dressed as rabbits bring them jam sandwiches. The aforementioned movie begins to play for the guests. As they get dressed, they exchange clothes, Crowley sees the pies that the rabbits left out and starts eating them. Suddenly, 3 large goats rush the area behind the screen and devour the groom while Sadie watches on in horror! Crowley’s last word is “pedometer”. Suddenly, in his place stands a very large aardvark. The aardvark surveys its surroundings and upon seeing Sadie says with great aplomb and a Scottish brogue, “Good day to you madame, my name is Arnold the Animated Aardvark pleased to meet you.” He then leaves the stunned bride to jump into the Bentley and drive away while The sounds of The Velvet Undergrounds “I’m Set Free” are blaring from the car speakers. Roger the postman glares at the retreating car and with a tilt of his head and a middle finger extended he exclaims, “Put a sock in it mate!”

[antinfront]

who does everyone picture as Dottie and Sadie???? Cause all I can see when I read Neil's special spoilers is Jane Lynch and Catherine Tate kicking ass and drinking wine while the world burns

[ineffable-ezra]

People should write fanfiction for the good omens special spoilers.

[tehloserprince]

season 3 is a go! hope we get more boxfly content

If they return, I hope Anna Maxwell Martin can make a cameo too, maybe in a flashback or something. It's always nice to get the main players back for the grand finale.

But also, it would be hilarious if Gabriel and Beelzebub had to get Aziraphale and Crowley to communicate. The new and improved Gabriel trying to be nice and diplomatic with Aziraphale while Beelzebub whacks Crowley with a broom, probably.

[nonlaregina]

Just like in the 2nd season of Staged, they were looking for two women to play David and Michael.

Now, if they were looking for two women to play Aziraphale and Crowley... they would already be on a bench.

[catsconflictscopicsandchamomile]

I am once again BEGGING to know if anyone anywhere is keeping track/log of the GOs3 Special Spoilers

they captivate me, and yet I cannot take time every day to scroll through the past 24hrs of Gaiman-ing to sift them out

[mcrowann]

Imagine if season 3 is actually just about Sadie and Dottie solving how their husbands died.

I dont… i dont know what id do.

You’ll either see me on the news or never hear from me ever again
