The Empire Awards were held at the Dorchester Hotel in London, 5 February 2002.

Empire is an excellent UK(and also Australian)film magazine that presents these awards every year.

Sir Ian McKellan and Billy Boyd with Orlando.I believe the woman was a presenter,but I don't know who she is or what her name is.

Thanks for starting this topic melodyslove. The name of the woman with Orlando is Rosamund Pike.

Orlando won the award for 'Best Debut' in The Fellowship Of The Ring'

I've got a couple of my own to add...



















How about I see if I can find a download and I'll type up a transcript of his acceptance speech. :bigwink:

Lookee at what I found on The Orlando Bloom Files, his acceptance speech. It's audio only but here it is...



"This is really surreal. Oh my word, thank you so much. Umm, you know it's crazy because I got an opportunity out of drama school to work on a project like Lord of the Rings which doesn't come round very often and ummm, you know, I've been forever grateful to the hundreds and thousands of people who were like, felt like were there making The Lord of the Rings - ummm, Peter Jackson the director and Fran Walsh his partner and writer, ummm, for seeing some weird pointy-eared quality in me, ummmmm, my agent Fiona who I have to thank, she's amazing, and ummm... (*can't understand the next few words, he mumbles*)... my family and friends who I just love and thanks to the readers of Empire - because I think I love you too now."

Found another small picture...

Three new to me. :)

One more. :)

Some 'new' and some larger :D

Thought she was Samantha Morton, but then I looked again and no, she is that actress you mentioned, that played a role in the las bond movie with Pierce Brosnan.

Thanks for the pics they are great, I love to watch those old pics where Orlando looks so young :wub:
