Good Omens, in the end, is about love. But the finale, the 90-minute episode that makes up Season 3, has some twists and turns to get there, especially where it leaves the angel Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and former demon Crowley (David Tennant). TV Insider spoke with director and executive producer Rachel Talalay about that ending and more. Warning: Spoilers for Good Omens 3 ahead!
Aziraphale and Crowley, separated for years, reunite when the supreme archangel needs the former demon’s help finding Jesus Christ (Bilal Hasna), who leaves for Earth amidst the chaos in heaven. Long story short, Michael (Doon Mackichan) uses the Book of Life to remove pretty much everything from existence, including, along the way, the Metatron (Derek Jacobi), Sandalphon (Paul Chahidi), and Uriel (Gloria Obianyo), until Aziraphale and Crowley find the angel at the Eternal Flame. There, Crowley’s able to grab one page from the fire, leading to him and Aziraphale holing up in the latter’s bookshop, the only place left in the world … but they’re not alone.
