It's offensive to me that Dolores Umbridge liked pink and cats.
But I wonder, would a live cat have actually liked her? Or would it have sensed her terrible personality? 🤔
Idk why I never noticed this before, but why does Hermione have her time turner out when they're at the hippogriff lesson in Prisoner Of Azkaban? She was supposed to be keeping it a secret, so who was she showing it to while Harry was flying on Buckbeak? Hmm? 🤔
Alan rehearsing the scene out of costume just doesn't get old. I'd love if there were video of this. Snape in a jean-jacket.
double trouble by the twins!

Number 12, Grimmauld Place, ancestral home of Sirius Black, is up for sale. Okay, it’s a well-presented grade II-listed Georgian flat in Claremont Square, Pentonville, N1.
The iconic address, HQ of the main resistance to the dark forces of Voldemort, was a filming location featuring in ‘Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix’, starring Daniel Radcliffe as Harry of course, and Gary Oldman as homeowner Sirius, and is available for £385,000. The light and airy leasehold first-floor period property boasts access to a rear garden, with studio, separate kitchen and bathroom, and is mid-terrace. Plus, if entry to Hogwarts is not available to you, then the Gower School and Elizabeth Garrett Anderson School are virtually on your doorstep.
The wizardly pied-à-terre is also conveniently close to King’s Cross St Pancras station for when you need to catch the train from platform 9¾ (or hop on a Eurostar to Paris). It’s pretty minute, though, so probably not suitable for large pets or house elves.
“Only a person who wanted to find the Stone - find it, but not use it - would be able to get it. That is one of my more brilliant ideas. And between you and me, that is saying something.” | “There is no good and evil. There is only power, and those too weak to seek it.”
Harry Potter & The Sorcerer’s Stone (2001) dir. Chris Columbus
“Christmas was coming. One morning in mid-December, Hogwarts woke to find itself covered in several feet of snow.”
