Today you have been summoned for jury duty. The defendant, Gollum. Johnny is backing his corner as the defense and Dave as the prosecutor. In this episode we debate whether Gollum is Good or whether he is Evil. We bring facts, evidence, eye-witness accounts and plenty of useless courtroom jargon nonsense to the court. Your duty is to listen to both sides of Gollums story and come up with a verdict. His life is in your hands. Is Gollum Good or Evil? You decide.

In todays episode, Dave and Johnny recast The Lord of the Rings! We go through the 9 members of the fellowship and a few more of our other favourites and we debate what other actors would have been good choices if they had been cast in the original motion picture. Who would have been able to give a performance to the same standard as our original cast (controversial) and what actors would we love to see bounce off each other in LOTR partnerships such as Frodo & Sam or Merry & Pippin!
