According to his official resumé[1], Atkin Downes voiced Legolas in War of the Ring and Fíli, Kíli and "Master of the Elves" in The Hobbit. It is unclear whether he actually voiced these characters: Grant George is also credited for the voice of Legolas, and the voice of Kíli sounds surprisingly much like Tom Kane.
