RIP Christopher Tolkien

[scarf man]

Christopher Tolkien, posthumous editor of J.R.R. Tolkien's works, has passed into the west in the 95th year of his age.
All is silver glass for him now.

Sad news but he lived a long life.

Rest in Peace, Sir.

And not a mention of it (that I can find) on the BBC website! Such disrespect is enough to make the blood boil.

Rest in Peace, good Sir. The white shores are surely calling you...
