Now I want to see them all again
As with the movies, I found this hundred-things-you-didn't-know-about-LotR [purist warning: that is LotR-the-movies, not the book] more fun than I'd expected. Apparently I have a trivia bone after all, or else it's just that my Middle-Earth bone is all-encompassing. It's another of those parts of me that got stuck early; I come over all teenage at any exposure.
Also, I particularly draw your attention to fact 76. This puts me and Christopher Lee in a club of seriously limited membership, though I dare swear there are more than we two who qualify: hands up who else has met both Tolkien and Gandalf? (Also, of course, Mr Lee is excluded from the even-more exclusive club of those who have met Tolkien and Gandalf and Saruman. But I'm there. Anyone? Bueller? Anyone...?)
