Notes
- ↑ Tolkien was asked, "presumably you voted for Mr [?]Jennings?"
"What?", replied Tolkien (he didn't hear the question).
"Presumably you voted for Mr Jennings?"
"I did. [inaudible]".
The video then cuts away to black. Presumably this was just a way of introducing the main item. Tolkien is mentioned again and associated with Basil Blackwell as supporting Mr Jennings. (The Tolkien Society Facebook group, accessed 14 December 2013)
