Richard Armitage tangentially related

Current projects:

• (Berlin Station): The AfD (the model for “Perspektive für Deutschland” in the series) has drawn even with or passed the SPD (Germany’s center-Left socialist party) in some polls. [in German]

Past projects:

• (The Hobbit): Praise for the great performances (including Richard Armitage’s) in honor of annual Hobbit Day.
• (The Hobbit): An article that includes links to Tolkien reading his own work.

Industry issues:

• On the booming e-book market and Audible’s market segment.

Things we’ve talked about:

• Social media is no longer separate from reality.

Miscellaneous:

• Roundabout, with which Armitage did Love, Love, Love, is staging Arthur Miller’s All My Sons this season. For some reason something’s chasing around my subconscious about this — did Armitage mention this at some point, or am I confusing something?
• Another contemporary political joke — ingenious (if you’re not up on U.S. politics, Papadapoulos recently pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI in the course of its investigation of collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign).
