    While Matthew and Diana’s first meeting remains fairly faithful to how they meet in the novel, the TV series sees the witch crossing paths with the blood-sucking geneticist much earlier on (though she doesn’t spot him at the time), and we also follow Matthew alone in scenes prior to his official meeting with Diana. In a lot of ways this makes sense...

    Mysterious manuscript Ashmole 782 remains at the heart of the series – but some details of how Diana interacts with it have changed. For example, the series shows Diana burning her hand on the book, its writings start to creep onto her skin, and she even has a vision of her deceased father after reading it. None of these things happen in the novel,...

The A Discovery of Witches production team have also hinted that Gillian’s role will be expanded throughout the series, meaning that even the mo...

The first episode sees Peter Knox (Owen Teale) travel to Finland to recruit the witch, but their meeting at her home never takes place in the book. And speaking to RadioTimes.com earli...

    Of course, an awful lot of Harkness’ world is transposed exactly into the TV version of the story – and in one case it’s even word-for-word. When Diana first opens the Ashmole 782 manuscript she jots down some details about its appearance, and the notes she makes are taken directly from the source material: Sure, it’s a small point, but it’s a grea...
