Calisuri and I would like to thank Barbara Hendricks and the folks at USCreative.com for their great story on us. We greatly apreciate it.
Day: November 11, 1999
Fans in the UK should prick up their ears, if this report from Duncan is anything to go by:
“I think I heard that Jonathan Ross will be interviewing Christopher Lee on BBC Radio 1 this weekend (I unfortunately know no details) but as Ross presents ‘Film 99’ on BBC television I imagine there’s a reasonable chance of them discussing LOTR.”
We’re going to try and get a transcript, but we don’t know how we’ll succeed with that.
In case you were wondering what that construction at the end of the bridge looked like, here it is closeup. My guess is that it’s where the Mayor would hang out. It could be an inn or something too.

!!!WARNING MAJOR SPOILERS!!!
Both confirmed female LOTR stars Cate Blanchett and Liv Tyler can be found on TV in Australia. Resevoir Dog again, gives us the scoop.
Just a reminder Liv Tyler is on TV in Australia tonight (Friday) and Cate Blanchett is on tomorrow at the AFI’s (www.sbs.com.au/afi99)
Xoanon here,
I’m working on getting the text down, look for it early tomorrow.
I got up this morning and when I looked into the paper I saw a fantastic article that you HAVE to know about. The article was in The Sydney Morning Herald one of Australias biggest newspapers, it is a large two page spread on Tolkein. It dealt with why everyone is obsessed with him?
It included a brief history of his life as well as talking to people from the Hobbit stage play. It also included a guide for people who don’t know anything about tolkein’s world telling them what orcs, hobbits dragons etc were.
Thanks to Resevoir Dog for the tip!
Check out the Spy Reports for some pics from the Aussie Hobbit stage play!
These pictures are from the Sydney Morning Herald, and are of the Hobbit stageplay going on in Aussie land 🙂
