Who is your favourite character both books and films?

Seems to change for me every time I watch the movies (I feel ashamed I still haven't read the books)
One time it's Sam, the other time it's Faramir, then it's Merry... There are so many good characters, I can't decide!! :eek:
 
This is very hard to choose as there are many interesting and/or admirable people in the books. If you forced me to choose one favourite though I think I would have to say Eowyn. I think she has to go through so much while Theoden is under Wormtongue's influence, and she also struggles with not entirely 'fitting in' with what she is supposed to do/be/want as a woman at that time. Plus Rohan is my favourite place in all Middle-Earth (because horses!) so I have to choose someone from there!

I also love all the Hobbits, Faramir, Aragorn and Galadriel, and while I would not want to meet him down a dark alleyway, Gollum/Smeagol is a fascinating character too.
