I love when they do the pan cleaning part.... i don't know whether it's the notion that they spend four times aslong with the ceramic cleaning
i cannot put my finger on it
I love the way Gollum shows the 'clean' pan to the camera, positively brimming with pride.
I suspect this behaviour emanates from when goddess inspects her stables after he's mucked them out, 'not bad, I'll let you stay another night'.
