Another LOTR correction

Who would have thought that LOTR would generate so much correspondence...P O'Neill was on pointing out

"I know it sort of defeats the purpose of blogs to
be relentlessly fact-checked, but don't you mean
Faramir rather than Boromir with the martydom stuff?
(allowing that Boromir -- Sean Bean -- kind of does his
own martydom in the first one)."

Damn.

Justin wrote to say he spotted the first error but didn't correct me. The question is: Did Darren spot the Faramir/Boromir mix up? If so was he being polite? If not, his status has Lord of the Pedants is severely diminished.
For the record I welcome corrections as the only thing worse than being in error is remaining in error. None of this would have happened if I could locate my copy of the book. Search continues.....
