Bill can be Saruman, Hillary is a Ring Wraith.
Not a lot of good roles for women in LOTR, really.
Diana Wynne Jones comments, in her Tough Guide to Fantasyland, that for some reason it is always a Dark Lord, never a Dark Lady. She assumes that this is because the Management (her term for fantasy writers) believe women are inadequate to the role of great evil. She further assumes that this is because the Management are too young to ever have met DWJ’s Great-Aunt Clara.
