RhoDeo 1350 Hobbit 5

Hello, this time of year it's all about wintersports and with the winterolympics coming up the athlete's compete hard for the right to be there. Naturally the football goes on in the UK, but then they don't expect to win any medals at the olympics. That said most football is played by extremely wellpaid foreigners.

Ok Hobbitlovers the second part of Jackson's trilogy is out, the Desolation of Smaug seems to be a great film if the critic consensus is anything to go by. Brisk, fun, spectacular in parts, these are the most commonly described phrases. Specially the Barrel ride gets a mention looks like it's on here today.  N'Joy

Well in a few weeks time part 2 of the Hobbit trilogy is coming to the screens to get you started the coming 8 weeks a 1968 BBC Radio adaptation of J. R. R. Tolkien's 1937 children's fantasy novel The Hobbit is here. The series was adapted by Michael Kilgarriff and produced by John Powell in eight half-hour mono episodes for BBC Radio 4 ... NJoy

The radio series follows the plot of the original novel (revised 1951 version) very closely, except for the addition of The Tale Bearer, a narrator whose account of the story is often interrupted and embellished by the protagonist Bilbo Baggins in the role of secondary narrator.

Bilbo is approached by the wizard Gandalf to undertake a dangerous adventure, and despite his initial reluctance he soon finds himself accompanying Thorin Oakenshield and his party of dwarves on a long and difficult quest to recover the dwarves' treasure from Smaug the dragon. On the way, he encounters trolls, goblins, and giant spiders, and finds a magic ring with the power of invisibility. The show's production was complicated by the inclusion of multiple sound effects (often inserted live while recording the actors' performances), songs from the novel, and special sounds and electronic voice treatments created by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. All of the trolls, goblins, elves, wargs and eagles have treated voices, as does Gandalf when imitating the trolls.
