Daniel pictured smoking 'weed'?

Not the image WB or one could imagine Daniel Radcliffe's parents would want to see, but photographs in todays Daily Mirror newspaper of Daniel smoking cannabis openly at a party and looking a little worse for wear.

Make of it what you WILL as no doubt it will make headlines everywhere. If you have the need to see images then buy the newspaper. Personally I hope Daniel can realise how bad ALL smoking is for him and quit the habit as soon as possible while he still can without doing himself too much damage to his health.

Did you observe today's two minutes silence?

The Potter Cast and all the crew did too! In case none of you were aware, today is Remembrance Day (known also as Poppy Day or Armistice Day (the event it commemorates)) and is a day to commemorate the sacrifices of members of the armed forces and civilians esspecially in the First and Second World War's. It's observed on 11 November to recall the end of World War 1 on that date in 1918 and signing of the Armistice at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

The Harry Potter studios (Leavesden, Hertfordshire) was quite a place to be today at 11am, esspecially as filming is currently underway of the biggest battle scene Hogwarts will ever see. During filming everyone stopped to pay their respects for two minutes while they finish filming the giant battle scene; which has so far taken up nearly 3 weeks with a full cast list and in what is sure to be an epic finally. Filming recently has centered on some major battle scenes in and around the courtyard which have been very tense; and the sight of some disturbingly real special effects 'bodies' and some major destruction all around and you know the Potter guy's are going all out to bring the series to an incredible and realistic climax. We'll have much more exclusive news on this in time.

For this week, another exclusive shot from inside the Weasley's and also a great glimse of the inside of Arthur's 'shed' - enjoy!

New From WB
Warner Brother's newest release in the HP domain is a Harry Potter Years 1-6 Gift Set. It will come in regular and Blu-ray format. Also, a new HP DVD Game, Wizarding World. About the game:
This is a sequel to the current Harry Potter Hogwarts Challenge game. The player is back at Hogwarts, attending years four, five, and six, and engaging in activities incorporating elements from the fourth, fifth, and sixth films. Because the fiction for these books and films explores areas outside Hogwarts, to make the new game more interesting, we propose that gameplay include such areas as well. Thus, whilst the Harry Potter Hogwarts Challenge game focused primarily on classroom gameplay, the sequel would feature classroom gameplay and activities which take place in Harry's world outside Hogwarts.
As with the previous game, the player must successfully complete the activities associated with a particular year before moving on to the next, and each gameplay activity will be set up through establishing shots/location clips from the films, with narration providing any instructions or other information relevant to that activity. Students finish each year and advance to the next by completing a year End Challenge inspired by a pivotal event from each of films four, five, and six, respectively. The first player to complete each activity for all three years will be allowed to play a bonus activity, and will win the game.
All you need is a DVD player and remote control to play. No game board required. 1-4 players, 14 activities.

To check out the game, go HERE.
