Frodo Lover sends in word on a book fair this past weekend on Queen Street in Toronto. [More]
Month: September 2001
From: Frodo Lover
Today (September 30th) was the Toronto Book Fair!!! I went down to take a look at the fair, which took up all of Queen Street, to see if there was any Lord of the Rings booths. Hey and what do ya know booth number 214 there was a giant cardboard standup of Gandalf and also one of the four Hobbits, promoted by Harper Collins. I was quite disapointed they oney had the Black versions of the Trilogy and thats all they had.
They also had tattoos, two different kinds, and bookmaks which had Bilbo and Saruman on them promoting the movie. They said I could only have tattos and bookmarks if I bought something, since I already had this set I did not need to buy them. I was glad to see the booth was packed I think this will be really good for sales in Toronto!!!! Hope some others got to go as well.
Martyn Sanderson is a crazy old granpa… Craig Parker is in a soap opera… and Bernard Hill is voted as one of ‘the best of Brit TV’. Check it out! [More]
Here are a few tidbits on some new things the LOTR cast are up to:
Martyn Sanderson (Bree Gatekeeper) is starring in the English TV series ‘Atlantis High’. Sanserson plays ‘Gandpa Gordon’ in this comedy/drama about a family living in a town where nothing is as it seems. [More]
Craig Parker (Haldir) is starring in the New Zealand based TV series ‘Mercy Peak’. Parker plays ‘Alistar Kingsley’ in this soap opera based around the residence in and around the town of Bassett [More]
Bernard Hill (Theoden) is voted as one of Britian’s ‘Top 100 Greatest Tv Characters of All Time’. Hill’s character ‘Yosser Hughes’ from “Boys from the Blackstuff” Mini-series comes in at number 57: Yosser Hughes (82) – Bernard Hill, with his bemused brood of kids never let out of his sight, Bernard Hill’s powerful depiction of a man crumbling before your eyes brought him a mantlepiece full of awards but, as he later revealed, almost “drove him to the edge of insanity.” [More]
