First off, I am honouring a pledge, albeit most likely for one day only. You, at least, surely understand the importance of honour.

Secondly, I would most certainly not describe Elros, despite his failure to achieve by his own efforts anything worthwhile, as a minor character. He is one of the central figures of the Second Age, and so fair game as far as I am concerned.

For what it's worth, I agree that Sauron should go too. He, like Elrond, is beginning to look like a bit of a sad has-been in these shows. If you would but exercise a little patience, and show some imagination yourself by considering an alternative candidate of your own for once, I will be happy to join you in your endeavour.

I suspect, however, that you will find some sympathetic ears elsewhere today.
