Sean Biggerstaff, who played Oliver Wood in the first two Harry Potter films, was named “Best Actor” yesterday at the Bafta Scotland awards for his role in the UK television film “Consenting Adults.” You can see the rest of the winners at The Scotsman. There is also a quote from Sean:
“I only got the job two days before we started, but it was a pleasure to work on. This is really just the cherry on the cake.”
Robbie Coltrane, who plays Hagrid in the Harry Potter films was also in attendence.

As most of you probably remember, there will he a World of Harry Potter Theme Park opening in Florida in late 2009. Today a new rumour has sprung up about the park. This is in no way confirmed so please treat it as a rumour.
Universal is hoping to turn IOA’s “Harry Potter” -themed section into a way to challenge Disney World’s dominance when it comes to Christmas in Central Florida. Picture — if you will — a yearly “Holidays at Hogwarts” promotion at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. With carolers strolling through the streets of Hogsmeade and a traditional English Christmas feast being served nightly in the Great Hall at Hogwarts Castle.
As the story goes, once Phase One of “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” opens in 2009 (FYI: That phase of the project will probably only include Hogwarts Castle and Hogsmeade Village. Phase Two — featuring the Forbidden Forest and that Weasley-family-flying-car attraction — isn’t expected to come on line ’til sometime in early 2010), this new “land” will then allow Universal to offer yet another after-hours seasonal event, ” Halloween at Hogwarts.” So while Mom & Dad are next door at Universal Studios Florida getting the snot scared out of them at Halloween Horror Nights, their youngsters can be trick-or-treating in a deliberately scare-free environment over at IOA.
Thanks Leaky!

According to an online German report from the set, Michael Gambon, David Yates and Daniel Radcliffe’s double were filming in the Surbiton (a suburban area of London) train station this weekend. Thanks to HPANA we have a small summary of the article (which is in German).
The filming was of Michael Gambon standing on the platform with director David Yates requesting that he redo the scene with less gestures again and again. Large numbers of security staff were everywhere directing people away from the track and directing all questions about the filming to the train stations press office, which was of course closed for the weekend. Additional scenes were to be filmed but again, no one will furnish information as to who will be working this weekend.
