Are those of you on the other side of the pond (in North America & North North America

) able to watch the video on the page I linked to? This is a very important film, made back in 1992, & only available on VHS for a few years - it contains clips of Tolkien himself, interviews with Tom Shippey, Verlyn Flieger & Quene Margrethe of Denmark, but most significantly a long interview with Christopher discussing his father's work in great detail. If not, the direct link for it on You Tube is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCqd9...layer_embedded
