Course, it also depends on if we're talking about Tolkien's Elves or the 'Elves' you can find if you look hard enough in our own world and open your mind...they're a whole lot more tricksy...

Sounds interesting, I'll have to look into that one! Apparently at some point in the 50s people stopped seeing fairies and started seeing aliens. Might they be the same thing?
I liked how in Torchwood they managed to combine both in one story, with a little girl finding fairies at the bottom of her garden, which were in fact superhuman and quite sinister beings from the beginning of time itself - that's an episode well worth looking out for.
