Richard Taylor and Peter King
"The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King"

Speech
Peter King:
God, it's scary up here. I'd just like to thank the Academy. I'd like to thank New Line. I'd like to thank Peter, Fran, Philippa, Barrie. I'd like to thank all the team back in New Zealand, who worked so hard for such a long, long time I'd like to thank my gorgeous wife Sarah for being there every night with a glass of wine when I got home. And thank my gorgeous daughter for just being gorgeous. And thank you.

Richard Taylor:
Marjory Hamlin, Dominie Till, who looked after our on-set prosthetic applications for so many months. Jason Docherty, who manufactured over 10,000 of those prosthetics to be applied. Gino Acevedo, the gentleman within our company that looked after the work for so long. The cast that had to wear it all over all those months. I apologize for the rubbery faces and the funny noses but cheers to you all. Thank you. Thank the Academy and Tania. Cheers.
