One and a half hours long, in turns amusing, hilarious, serious, profound, moving, and topped off with a great speech by Shakespeare. (By the way, which of you will agree with me that our magnificent Gandalf&#8217;s memory of the meaning of his famous Elvish tattoo is a little erroneous? \ud83d\ude09 ) Anyway, it&#8217;s great way to spend ninety minutes with Sir Ian at a stretch, especially for those of us who will never have the opportunity to meet and hear him tell all these things in person. Enjoy!&#8221; Kiwifan \ud83d\ude42<br \/>\n<iframe data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MDu_352HWq4?rel=0\" width=\"710\" height=\"399\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ringer, Kiwifan, has sent us this lovely interview\/conversation with Sir Ian McKellen at the SAGFoundation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":82,"featured_media":46206,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[22,1300,4,49,10,5,1802,148,149],"tags":[807,2856,890,221],"class_list":["post-99540","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-headlines","category-hobbit-cast-news","category-hobbit-movie","category-mckellen","category-lotr-cast-news","category-lotr-movies","category-press-conferences","category-hobbit","category-lotr","tag-gandalf","tag-lotr","tag-sir-ian-mckellen","tag-the-hobbit"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/gandalf-ianmckellen-p.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1tLoH-pTu","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99540","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/82"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=99540"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99540\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":99541,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99540\/revisions\/99541"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/46206"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=99540"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=99540"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=99540"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
