A few reports are coming in from Ringers who tuned into the UK’s Channel 4 Paul O’Grady Show. Sir Ian McKellen was a special guest today, and confirmed a few things: He has received ‘both’ scripts. Original LOTR cast members will be returning. He has signed the declaration that he will not talk to friends, family or even his agent about the script! He does not know who is cast as Bilbo, but believes he will be an English actor. Sounds like a great interview – hopefully it will be posted on the O’Grady site soon. Thanks to Ringers Simon and Paul for the heads up. [O'Grady Website]
