BBC Radio Oxford spoke to Philip Pullman on the occasion of him receiving the
Freedom of the City of Oxford. He speaks a little on the medieval origins of the award and quite a lot on the ongoing film production - again very enthusiastically. He confirms that the title of the first film will indeed by The Golden Compass in all territories - voicing a little disappointment, but acknowledging that TGC is the most common title on the continent, as well as in America.
Listen to the interview.
Shame about the name change. I bet they'll have to republish it in the UK as The Golden Compass in the wake of the film.
