Well, first I wrote this entry in my blog. Then I wrote this one.

That's about it really.

Tireless research has revealed that the actor mentioned in the first of those entries was a chap called Billy Boyd, who was answering questions from users of BBC News Online. Here are the question and answer which inspired this whole mess:

I want to know whether you read the Lord of the Rings book and what kind of books you like to read. Emilia Stoimenova, Bulgaria

I didn't actually read it until I got the part, and since then I've probably read it 10 times. It's a book I probably know better than any other book. I read anything. One of my favourite things is just to ask someone what their favourite book is, and I'll go out and read that because there's a reason it's their favourite. When I worked in a printer's, whatever book I was printing, I would read that.
