Advertising may have been inevitable, but I don't agree that Tolkien would have forseen it and been unhappy with the idea partly for that reason...I don't think advertising was the same when he was alive, it's gone mad now. That's the great thing about the BBC- they don't have ads every 15 mins for 3 mins!!! <P>Wow, Saucy, I didn't know that...well they can't all be annoyed about it then.
