      Is it? I guess that would make sense, since I can’t place the two actors on either side. I thought that was Uhtred, son of Uhtred in the middle (and it’s definitely something that he would say in the show), but maybe I’ve just been watching more The Last Kingdom than LOTR lately.

      Thanks for setting me straight!

          This scene is from the extended edition of The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. The characters depicted are Eowyn and Eomer.

          When I looked at it more closely, I don’t recognize any of the actors, and the tent definitely looks more LOTR that I first thought, so maybe it’s from the Amazon Rings of Power series? IDK

        Don’t worry - I thought the same thing! I even heard the words in Uhtreds voice.

        Loved that show. I dropped off around season 2 though. The first season was great but when he became constantly neutered by Alfred’s loyalty baptisms I got bored.

          My wife and I just finished the last season and are now starting the movie wrap-up, and I’ve been pretty engrossed the whole time.

          But it’s definitely a little frustrating when the protagonist consistently gets either outwitted or otherwise trapped by a character with his own agenda, but I will say that I don’t think the writing is bad, as the characters consistently act in their own interest and in the interest of the people/ideals they care about. And season 2 does introduce some pretty good characters and has some pretty good major plot points, so you might give another try if you liked season 1.

          OTOH, it’s your life; don’t waste it watching a show that doesn’t hold your interest!
