@dim432 Christopher Lee plays Saruman, not Sauron. And there is Saruman in the last book and Sauron, but Sauron doesn't have a body to represent him so they just made a huge troll to fight Aragorn instead. I understand quite well why he was a bit pissed not to get to play Saruman in the end like in the book but it would be a mess in the film for people who hadn't read the books.
I find it hilarious at the things David Mitchell doesn't know or at least feigns ignorance on, but he's straight in there with an Aliens Vs Predator reference.
I get the feeling from this episode that Emma Thompson rather adores David Mitchell =) Her gleeful laughing after nearly everything he says is so cute
@Mayna00 MA English Literature from University Of Wales, Cardiff. He later went to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, and studied for PhD but didn't complete.
David Mitchell, the supposed awkward-around-women nerdy guy, has got Emma Thompson wrapped around his little finger here with his clever observations and jokes! Gotta love the guy.
@leeshajoi on second thought, it was directed by terry gilliam and the entire country of england probably boycotted the film for being directed by an american.
I love how Emma seems to really enjoy David Mitchell

0:16 Don't you think it sounds like a horse? AND THEN THE CUTEST FACE-Y POO I'VE EVER SEEN, STEPHEN!
I also love the point about germs at the end with all my heart. But also, Mitchell doesn't fail to please.

Saw Christopher Plummer live at Stratford Festival in the Tempest. He was fabulous. Close to four standing ovations.

Emma Thompson is that girl you had fun with before AND after you had sex for the first time, unlike every other female guest on Qi ever.
