Here’s what they had to say…
Inside those warehouse hangars, though, is where The MagicTM happens.
The second reaction the tour is designed to approach is no doubt a hyperventilating sense of OMG!
What will we get to see when the covers come off for theHarry Potter Studio Tournext March?
We didnt have to give a magical password to enter, just a promise not to break anything.
I think a lot of people are going to be really happy to see those rooms.
Bonnie Wright:You get the whole story of how it works.
Its many a year ago now but I remember getting told off for it, for influencing others.
Did you get detention?
TF:Exactly, in the dungeon!
James Phelps:Blimey, I didnt think there was graffiti.
I think they might have put wear and tear on them but not carving your names.
They had to relay the varnish every year because people would pick away at it.
Julie Walters:Did anyone put their initials on it?
BW:Im sure people did, but you wouldnt see it again the next day.
I hadnt sat there for a couple of years.
Sitting in that chair was really special.
TF:So much effort and love has gone into it.
They spent six months doing a bit of jewellery that wouldnt even be seen on camera.
TF:Were they even in shot?
Now theyre all locked up in shipping containers in the car park waiting to be put on display?
TF:Im pretty sure they are.
Would they have to have a particular coffee from the canteen or sneak out for a fag somewhere?
WD:Yeah, all of that!
NT:A fry-up!
TF:In full goblin costume, as well.
James Phelps:Bacon sarnie in the morning for me.
BW:On any film set, endless tea.
JP:Digestives, custard creams…
OP:The five oclock doughnut.
When youre starting to flag and then that was a pick-me-up.
JW:Mine would be a bowl of porridge and a cup of green tea…
So thats the catering sorted then.
Can you tell us which props wont be on display on the tour because theyre on your mantle pieces?
OP:Theyre all there.
and they were like, Yeah, it would be good wouldnt it but that was it.
JW:That was the end of it.
So, which is the prop or set that impressed you the most?
Is it the wands?
JW:The Weasley set of course.
I wanted to live in it, it was like a home.
It was above his desk throughout the whole film.
The last time we saw you all was at the premiere before the after-party which Natalias band played at.
What was the mood like that evening?
NT:I stole a hog.
Have you still got it?
NT:I ate it in a week.
WD:Oh you did eat this hog?
NT:I ate the entire thing.
I made sandwiches for all the band.
TF:Wasnt it a fake hog?
NT:No, it was an actual pig.
My dog loved me.
Were people crying on the stairs and hugging each other in toilets?
TF:I think everyone felt very proud to be there.
Its like a montage in your head of the last ten years racing by.
What do you imagine the 2021 ten year reunion party will be like?
NT:If Im not dead, hopefully Ill be having a massive party.
Have we got the scoop on that?
TF:[Still laughing] No, no Im kidding.
WD:Well probably come down here.
Itd be a great place to celebrate ten years ofHarry Potter.
JW:Will I still be alive?
[Laughing]
JP:They still wont have given us our wands!
OP:Maybe theyre waiting until the ten-year anniversary to give us our wands.
This would certainly be a good place to do reunions and see how theyve kept the sets here.
BW:Have it here, have a knees up in the Great Hall.
JW:Yes, we should be given the wands shouldnt we!
Oh yes, get the fires going, light the torches, marvellous!
Sounds pretty marvellous to us too.
From the sneak peek we saw, its going to be magic.
