<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Theoden nearly slew Wormtongue and Gandalf stopped him.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Actually Aragorn stopped him. you can't really make the comparision between those two, because in the movies Theoden was already going through the motions of killing Wormy & Aragorn had to grab his arm, where as in the books it was more Eomer remarking that he should kill him than actual swinging a sword at him. Or at least that's what I recall...
