The Funeral of Théodred is the twenty-first scene of The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (extended edition). This scene was not featured in the theatrical release of The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.

Synopsis

After Gandalf has released Theoden from the enchantment placed upon him by Saruman - and Saruman's lackey Grima Wormtongue has been banished from Edoras - the king learns that his son Théodred has died. He leads the people of Edoras, along with Gandalf and the members of the Fellowship, in a funeral procession outside the walls of the city. As Theodred's body is lowered into its burial mound, Eowyn performs a lament in Rohirric.
