And after all, why not? Why shouldn't he keep it? This week, Paul and Catherine are looking at Bilbo Baggins, in all his forms, from Orson Bean to Ian Holm. Tolkien's most meta-textual character? Leonard Nimoy's greatest inspiration? All this and more in the latest episode of this in-depth Lord of the Rings character guide podcast.
