How the heck did I forget to mention this!! I was reading the paper at work and I squeaked and got funny looks from my office buddy... It's now official!

MARTIN FREEMAN IS GOING TO PLAY BILBO BAGGINS IN THE HOBBIT!

Oh yes, that does indeed deserve allcaps if anything does!

Yes that one and Love, Actually as well.
And he was the doctor in the first episode of Black Books so I remembered him from that when I saw him in other stuff later. Like, Hardware. :D

Yes he's one of those people, that once you think yo look for him, turns up in an awful lot of shows I've seen. :)

Exactly!!

Like Simon Pegg, first time I saw him was with Nick Frost in Spaced, on tv in the UK 10 years ago...

And they were both in Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. XD
