This was posted to the C&C facebook group; nice documentary on the good Professor.
In The Real Middle Earth, Sir Ian Holm (Fellowship of the Ring, Alien, Chariots of Fire) narrates a fascinating exploration into a world that, although imaginary, seems so real we pore over its maps and contemplate the journeys made from one place to the other.

The film takes us In Tolkien’s footsteps and investigates the landscapes and buildings, places and names that helped shape Middle-earth.

Cool. I found that show on NetFlix / Hulu a few months back and enjoyed it.
