I loved the old B & W film.. And I LOVE Keeley Hawes.
I'm always a bit cautious now after watching the BBC's appalling destruction of War of the Worlds. Never again! haha. And I also can't be arsed watching long series that have crap endings any more, too. Life's too short.

They've took a great story and took it round the back for a good kicking, SKY or the BBC shouldn't be allowed near anything decent they murder anything they get their hands on now.

Not sure if we have any LOTR fans on here but they released some images of the Orcs and they look amazing, looks like they are not bothering with the awful CGI stuff from the Hobbit

Are they making a L.O.T.R t.v series?

Sherwood is building the intrigue well.
it also works as the writer grew up in the area, the characters are believable and the socio-political atmosphere is real.
Some excellent performances from Brit tv big-hitters.

In fairness to the Hobbit trilogy, it makes perfect sense why they went CGI witgh the Orcs. Just look at the behind the scenes documents
