SNL Spoofs The Hobbit With Bilbo Baggins Actor

(Radio.com) The worlds of British actor Martin Freeman collided on this week's Saturday Night Live with hilarious results. The actor stars as Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (opening Wednesday 12/17).

Freeman is also known for his role as Tim Canterbury in the UK version of The Office. This gave SNL the opportunity to conjure up a hilarious mashup of the two franchises - The Office: Middle Earth.

Taran Killam shines as a collar and tie wearing Gollum (note the cameo by "the ring" in the clip) and Bobby Moynihan's take as Gandalf meets David Brent might be one of his best bits to date.
