According to this, Alfrid is "The Master of Laketown's 'conniving' servant".
So, it wasn't enough to invent one character, eh Mr. Jackson?

You know, sad as it is, the parallel with Wormtongue did cross my mind.
I really don't get the reasoning here. Is the Master himself not conniving enough on his own?

They should have just named the character Anni-Frid, and had her be a female member of a traveling minstrel troupe. Now that's script engineering.

About this Alfrid, I see more PJ and friends mucking with TH:
[QUOTE]Ryan Gage as Alfrid:[34] The Master of Laketown's "conniving" servant. Gage was originally cast to play Drogo Baggins, father of Frodo Baggins. According to Jackson, "Ryan is a great young actor who we originally cast in a small role, but we liked him so much, we promoted him to the much larger Alfrid part."[/QUOTE] Not only invent a new character but make it a "much larger" part. Well, like dwarf tossing in the LOTR movies, with PJ Quote:
