Jesse writes: The latest e-mail update for the Aussie LOTR Convention contained this message from special guest Bruce Hopkins: “Gidday, just a quick note to point out that Gamling is also in The return Of The King. I have just done some filming for the pick ups and have a couple more days to go over the next month. Cheers, looking forward to it Bruce.”
