"Shall I describe it to you? Or would you like me to find you a box?"

Well if you want to take part of the next LotR quiz, you should book a table right now, because there's almost no room left ✨ Tonight's quiz will be entirely based on the extended cut version of the beloved movie Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.
