'Tolkien' to appear in new CS Lewis drama - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Fresh from the latest edition of Radio Times...

CS Lewis: Beyond Narnia will be shown on Friday 6th January at 9pm, on BBC2. The cast list includes Robert Hickson as Tolkien, with Ben Lambert as 'Younger Tolkien' - neither of these are well-known actors so I suppose they have a good chance to make an impression. The description says that "there is a strong focus on Lewis's struggles to find a religious faith." I wonder if it will show Tolkien's discussion with Lewis on Addison's Walk?

I'm looking forwards to this....
