So...
Mithalwen & I have decided that the BBC Radio series of Lord of the Rings deserved its own thread, & that we would take an Episode by Episode approach, along the lines of the Chapter by Chapter read through & the Scene by Scene watch through (or whatever the term is).
The plan is to start soon - I'm putting something together to post on here tomorrow (hopefully), setting things up, giving a few bits of background info on how the series came to be made & why its the best adaptation of the book ever......
But as a starter, here are a few links which those unfamiliar with the series may find of interest.
Wikipedia entry on the series:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lor...adio_series%29). Very good overview.
A very good & informative review by Elen Brundige

And Wellinghall -
http://www.tolkienradio.com/ - a site dedicated to the series, containing pictures of the cast, a full transcript of each episode, sound clips, etc.
All welcome. Hopefully we'll get enough interest to make this worthwhile.
