LORD OF THE RINGS - ELIJAH WOOD TO DJ AT BRITAIN'S TOP RADIO STATION

Music-loving LORD OF THE RINGS star ELIJAH WOOD is being lined up to present his own radio show in Britain.

The Hollywood actor, 23, has been asked by pop flagship station BBC RADIO ONE to stand in for veteran DJ JOHN PEEL when he goes on holiday later this year (04).

Wood - who is brushing up on his DJ skills - recently performed a four-hour set in London.

He enthuses, "It was only supposed to be two hours but it went well and they asked me if I wanted to carry on, so I did.

"I DJ-ed with my iPODs. I had two linked up and just played the songs off them."
