Dead Ringers

Dead Ringers was a comedy sketch show on BBC 2 which frequently parodied and referenced The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy and the works of J.R.R. Tolkien more broadly. It ran for seven series, between 2000 and 2007

Series 3

In Episode 1, the use of Bigatures by Weta Workshop for The Lord of the Rings Trilogy was referenced in a sketch wherein Tony Blair claimed the Iraq War was all faked with the use of models. Also, the show parodied How Clean Is Your House? with Aggie MacKenzie calling herself "the Gollum of grime" and the owner's house being described as "a cross between Mordor and Afghanistan".[1]

In Episode 2, parodying the fact that the Prime Minister of Thailand, Thaksin Shinawatra, had bought a stake in Liverpool Football Club, BBC News reports that "another foreign leader with a questionable human rights record", Saruman, had bought Newcastle United F.C. The manager, Bobby Robson, explains that Shelob and Sméagol (invisible thanks to The One Ring) will be playing for the team.[2]
