To coincide with the 'epic' final instalment of The Hobbit trilogy, the Beeb have posted an article which some here may find interesting:

As much as these latest Hobbit films have consistently piqued my nerd rage, you can't deny that they do a lot for Tolkien studies and general interest in the texts. This is a great article and I want to see the rest of that video (and give that nice doctor a makeover).

Some interesting content in there but goddamn I hate it when an article is broken up into tiny pieces and interspersed with links to 'related' content.
