Tolkien feature on the BBC, circa 1968

I came across a great video feature on Tolkien circa 1968, courtesy of the BBC. I've never seen most of this footage. Tolkien walking through his old haunts and talking about his books is priceless. Enjoy!

With that, I'll be signing off for a short vacation, returning Wednesday or so.

  1. Just reread the Carpenter biography of Tolkien - this was a perfect accompaniment. Thanks!
