Okay, mention earlier of Blade Runner in another thread made me remember this. For those of you who saw Blade Runner, when Sam and Frodo march out of Cirith Ungol in orc armor, they always remind me of Sebastian's toys.

When I told my friends about the musical they thought it was a joke -- now I've sent them the article from the BBC website.
