The Neverwhere cast

So, Neil Gaiman isn't in London right now, but the voice cast of Neverwhere sent him a picture from the day they recorded the drama!



He posted it in his blog - link - together with a list of who plays whom in the radio dramatization:

James McAvoy - Richard
Natalie Dormer - Door
David Harewood - Marquis
Sophie Okonedo - Hunter
Benedict Cumberbatch - Islington
Anthony Head - Croup
David Schofield - Vandemar
Bernard Cribbins - Old Bailey
Romola Garai - Jessica
Christopher Lee - Earl of Earl's Court
Andrew Sachs - Tooley
George Harris - Abbot
Don Gilet - Fulingous, Ruislip, Blackfriar
Abdul Salis - Sable, Sump, Clarence, Homeless Man
Paul Chequer - Gary, Guard 2
Lucy Cohu - Lamia
Yasmin Paige - Anaesthesia, Tenant 2 – female, Match girl
Johnny Vegas - Lord Ratspeaker
Stephen Marcus - Varney, Homeless man, Letting agent, Guard 1
Karen Archer - Sylvia, Old Woman, Dream Hawker, Mother...

Do I get it right that James McAvoy is playing the main character? I haven't read the book, so I have no idea who the characters of James' and Benedict Cumberbatch's are. Can someone who actually read the book tell me more?
