Since production of The Hobbit began ramping up we have been getting emails from curious fashionistas about costume designer Ngila Dickson, will she be continuing stunning her work on The Hobbit? Our answer has always been ‘we’ll let you know as soon as we know!’. Well the answer now comes in the form of a ‘Reel Late with Kate’ interview. Moa hunter brings us the news: “Reel Late with Kate [TV3-NZ] last night included an interview with Ngila Dickson. At the end of the programme the presenter (Kate Rodger) said that Ngila Dickson would not be working on The Hobbit because of existing contractual obligations.”

Sad news indeed! So, who do you think should get the gig? Post on our Message Boards!

During my association with TheOneRing.net I have often felt very fortunate to know great people and be in great places. Sometimes I have been lucky enough to have my camera along.

Out of that vast TORn photo library that includes digital images, and old scratched negitives, I put a few images together with some music from Arjan Kiel, (with thanks to fan film ‘Born of Hope,’) to pay tribute to the whole community of TheOneRing.net.

Things have been so crazy that I almost forgot to post about this awesome metal art from @MetalbirdUSA that I got at the War of the Rohirrim afterparty hosted by @theoneringnet . It is *gorgeous* in front of our fall foliage, and I love the thoughtful, eco-friendly packaging.

English voice actor for Olwyn in #LOTRTheWaroftheRohirrim is confirmed as the wonderful #LorraineAshbourne. Speculation had been that Miranda Otto was playing both Olwyn and Eowyn (as narrator); #GaiaWise confirmed otherwise.
