They play all the hits from the original, now with added Gollum.

Imagine if The Office had been filmed in Middle Earth… or imagine The Hobbit if it had taken place in Slough…

Frankly, both work just as well as each other as Martin Freeman revisits Tim in the guise of Bilbo Baggins for Saturday Night Live.

OK, it raises a smirk when it aims for belly laughs, but it’s still worth a watch.
