Perhaps no aspect of adapting a book to the small screen is more contentious than that of casting. In episode two we take a look at exactly who has drawn the herculean task of Casting Director. But the fun doesn't stop there; as Ages come and pass, fans have cast their picks for who should star in the Wheel of Time series, and we want to take a look at their choices before they fade to legend. Join us for what we are calling, "The Last Fan Casting" and decide for yourself what is most important when seeing Robert Jordan's beloved characters brought to life.
