Send us a textIn this episode, we discuss the official beginning of filming on the Harry Potter TV show. Enjoy!Topics/Summary:· 2:00 Leaked Dursley photos. They look authentic for the time, and the book. This is part of a larger idea of separating the films from the core of the fandom, and instead bringing the books back to the foreground. Looking at these photos, I don’t see Richard Griffiths and Fiona Shaw, but rather Vernon and Petunia Dursley.· 17:29 Harry! Big news: we got the first official look at Domonic McGlaughlin as Harry Potter. He is holding the clicker-thingy with all these official markings like “scene 1, take 1” and all that. Domonic doesn’t look like Harry, but Dan Radcliffe does. That might be pointing to the fact that now the TV show is going for a much more specific goal.· 24:18 Hagrid! Nick Frost as Hagrid was also in an official release. He doesn’t look as bushy as Robbie Coltrane, but his clothes defiantly look similar. He has a striped shirt underneath and a thick green coat on top. His face is much brighter. Does that point to a difference in character?Having anything you want to hear or say?
