Despite what it says in the books, I always had a picture of Elrond in my mind as a slightly distinguished chap - a bit like Anthony Hopkins. This was completely skewed when the films came out and I saw 'that guy who was in Priscilla Queen of the Desert' had been cast as Elrond. I simply cannot divorce Hugo Weaving from his earlier role and in Return of the King I would not have been surprised if Hugo flung his cloak back in Aragorn's tent to reveal an Abba costume, and then burst into song...
