Well, when it comes to accents, one thing bothers me. Frodo has a 'plummy' accent (being the Master of Bag End) and Sam and Merry both speak with a West Country burr (which seems to suit Hobbits well, being rural folk). <P>So why does Pippin speak with a Scottish accent? (I know that Billy Boyd is Scottish, but he is an actor and can therefore presumably do other accents.) Gimli's Scottish accent works for me, but Pippin's just seems a bit out of place.
