I could never read Tolkien. I always found him unreadable … I didn’t read [the books], and I normally don’t like people who have! The people who love it, they’re kind of scary. They talk all this gobbledygook and they think of it as the Holy Grail.

Sir William Connolly CBE, better known as Billy Connolly, portrayed Dáin Ironfoot in The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies.[2]
