Thank you @HDMPod for yet another great interview! Really enjoyed how you could speak freely about the whole trilogy and more, and how it transfers to the screen. And for once I actually listened to it right after it came out. #HisDarkMaterials https://t.co/tdI9vuLnZO

@StApolloandCleo @HDMPod @janetranter1 Iā€™ve heard the American version of TAS was a bit censored, anyone knows if the American version changed the age too? That would at least explain why people are all confused, but also kinda not.

@StApolloandCleo @HDMPod @janetranter1 Seems like itā€™s all some sort of misunderstanding, stemming from a Deadline interview in 2019 ā€œIn the third book, The Amber Spyglass, Lyra is around 16 years of age, which, in success, would allow Bad Wolf to film in 2021.ā€ Other sources just cite that one https://t.co/JpsxMduYjq

@StApolloandCleo @HDMPod @janetranter1 After some quick searching, I found a Reddit post from 2019 discussing this, so itā€™s possible Lyra being 16 in S3 was mentioned earlier at some point. Iā€™ll admit I didnā€™t follow the TV series development nearly closely enough before season 1 hit. https://t.co/1SZ56d3iWQ

@dragonfelluk @StApolloandCleo @HDMPod @janetranter1 Reminds me of this yet again. Did the author of that old article know something we didnā€™t? Lyra as 16 doesnā€™t bother me as much as that article being wrong, but I still find it amazing that theyā€™ll fit 3 yrs in two eps and have time for the rest of TAS too https://t.co/oJC1E8dFIb

@dragonfelluk @StApolloandCleo @HDMPod @janetranter1 Probably. I do know Lyra is 12/13 in the books, but it almost sounded like Jane didnā€™t (Iā€™m sure she does though). But it struck me how Lyra being 16 for the show was put as just another fact we all should know well, while I hadnā€™t heard any specifics. We knew thereā€™d be some gap

@StApolloandCleo The dƦmon settling (+spectre) problem would also probably have affected Will from the start. Marketing material (if that can be trusted) labels him as 15, and Lyra as 13 in S1/2. Theyā€™re already stretching the limits, so I assume itā€™s not as strictly linked to puberty in the show
