Yes, I know. I never heard the radio play, but I have seen "The Lord of the Rings", and a few other of Sir Ian Holm's films. Bilbo Baggins is one that stands out as the most recent role. |

I hope you don't mind, but I felt that needed a slight correction. A huge loss but a stunning back catalogue of over 500 film scores. |

I want to believe that he was just shutting down so his consciousness could boot up in an R2D2 unit somewhere, or because he has decided to log out of our current instance of the Matrix. Sorontar |

A great loss to the world of music. Fleetwood Mac one of my half-a-dozen lifetime favourite bands. Sigh!  |
