I've never heard of In The First Degree -- sounds interesting. I'll have to look into that one, if only for myself!
I forgot to mention that I had a laugh at Ouroboros' comparison of Colin with Theoden.
When I passed on the message to Col, for some reason I said Boromir, so now he thinks someone thinks he looks like Sean Bean. ("They'd have to add thirty-odd years to Sean Bean for a start," was his comment.)
EDIT: I've told him Ouroboros meant Theoden, not Boromir. "Of course," he said. "It's my kingly appearance." There's going to be no living with him now...
