Richard Armitage Quotes - While it's unlikely Richard Armitage will want to keep his prosthetics when filming wraps, he does have a version of Thorin's sword - Orcrist - of his own. "The weird thing is, I want to take it down to the gym and start swinging it around in preparation, but I don't think my gym would let me do that." [pretends to swing the sword] - Richard Armitage source: localtoday.com.au, April 30, 3012 Richard: I started training again at the end of January so I could swing that heavy sword around we’ve been talking about. But I was gifted a replica of the sword at the end of the last year so I could practise with it. I was very close to taking it to the gym with me. Oscar Hillerstrom: you didn’t bring it with you now though? Richard: I didn’t bring it with me. I surely would never have got it through security. Oscar Hillerstrom: I would have liked to have seen you go through Customs with that. ‘Well, I’m an Actor!’… It would have certainly taken them by surprise. source: Popcorn Taxi's Richard Armitage Q&A: 1 May, 2013, Sydney, Australia screenshots are from the IGN interview with Richard published on May 8th http://uk.ign.com/videos/2013/05/08/the-hobbits-thorin-speaks also to be seen on YouTube: http://youtu.be/_4vaEhfZUQc | Facebook
