Reacher Gilt
Background
Reacher Gilt is the Clacks Chief Executive in Ankh-Morpork, on Discworld. He and his lawyers stole the Clacks from Adora Belle Dearheart's father.
During the events of Terry Pratchett's Going Postal (2010) played by David Suchet
Reacher watches Moist Von Lipwig walk up to the post office and tells Horsefry, who warns Reacher that if the post office is reinstated it could be trouble for them. Lord Vetinari has a meeting with Reacher, who tells Lord Vetinari he only answers to his shareholders. Reacher rides up in a carriage and invites Moist into his carriage. He tells Moist the last four postmasters have died. Reacher reads the paper and tells Horsefry they need to take more direct action to stop Moist. Gryle arrives at Reacher's office and Reacher introduces him to Horsefry. Gryle reports what he has learned about Moist and Reacher orders Gryle to kill Moist. Adora finishes the letter Moist gave her as Reacher arrives and Reacher acts like he and Moist are friends. After Moist rebuilds the burned down post office, Reacher proclaims an announcement of a new mobile technology. Moist accuses Reacher of sending an assassin after him to the crowd and Reacher declares war on the post office, which Miss Cripslock reports. Reacher tells Horsefry that he has no intention of actually building a mobile network, but that it will be forever in development. Mr Pony tells Reacher, the Clacks system is experiencing a mass shutdown and they need to shutdown the entire system before it spreads. Reacher offers Mr Pony a bonus to figure out a solution without closing the Clacks and after Mr Pony leaves, Horsefry asks how much Reacher paid Gryle. Reacher then finds out that Horsefry has been keeping notes in his ledger on payments, including those for assassinations. Reacher asks Horsefry to bring him all of his ledgers and then throws them into the fireplace and beats Horsefry to death. Reacher accuses Roger and Princess of helping to shut down the system. He grabs Princess and holds her over the side of the Clacks tower and threatens to drop her. Mr Pony goes to the tower and tells Reacher he thinks he has figured out a workaround. The next day Reacher offers refunds to those affected by the outage, while Moist introduces a bandit-proof coach. Moist offers his hat as a wager that the Clacks will go down again during the evening and Reacher takes up the challenge. The hacking fails and Moist makes one more bet, that he can send a message to Uberwald faster than a Clacks can send the message. The rules are set in front of Lord Vetinari which includes, if Moist wins, the Clacks must be taken from Reacher while if Moist loses, he hangs. Reacher threatens Mr Pony that if the Clacks lose, then Princess will suffer. Waiting at the starting line is Ridcully and his Omniscope and Trooper with his noose. Moist reveals the message to be a book, the biography of Lord Vetinari. Later. Ridcully uses the Omniscope to read the Clacks message and Reacher declares himself the winner. Moist continues to stall his hanging until the Clacks message changes to list the murders committed by Reacher as annotated in the ledgers. Reacher throws his cane at the Omniscope, which causes it to explode. A disguised Reacher is brought before Lord Vetinari, who makes him an offer. Reacher chooses to refuse his offer and jumps into the abyss.
