I just read something interesting, though I'm not sure if it's true: someone on IMDB claims that Andy Serkis directed the scenes with Smeagol and Deagol.

I think Fran Walsh actually directed that scene. I am 90% sure this was stated on either a commentary or interview.

OK, I've got the answer now, straight from the horse's mouth. Fran Walsh directed most of the Smeagol flashback sequence, but Andy directed the fight. From his book:
"Peter told me that Fran was unwell and was unable to work that day. He asked me if I'd direct the scene..." (pg 99)
