Correct, Pervinca! To be honest I don't think any of this was ever filmed, though Old Man Willow gets sort of used in Fangorn. (I was surprised to find no mention of the Old Took in the script, though!)

Neither Udun nor Oliphaunt (though I considered it); you're right to be looking at songs for #11, while #2 consists of a straight and a cryptic clue.
