The Harry Potter Experience

Posted on November 26, 2017

I mentioned in a recent post that my family and I had recently visited the Warner Bros Studio Tour – here, we took in all the magic from the Harry Potter films, which was quite the experience! What did we see? Well, we saw pretty much everything there was to see. Even if you’re not a fan of Harry Potter, the tour offers an incredible and detailed insight to the process of making big movies. The level of work that goes into producing films like this is astounding.

(how about a letter to Hogwarts?)

(every wand was distinctive and every credited member of cast and crew received their own personalised wand)

(there were thousands of bottles of various weird things and potions and each one had its own, unique, handwritten label)

(we’re off to Hogwarts!)

What we saw was not merely a faithful reproduction of the sets and props – we saw the actual sets and props. It made the experience all the more special to know we were walking through and standing in the places where these movies were made.

(the Knight Bus, circa The Prisoner of Azkaban)

(one of the weird plant baby things)

We took hundreds of pictures, which I can’t go through here! Needless to say, it was a fantastic experience (by the way, butter beer is wonderful), and I don’t think we scratched the surface of what it was like.

So, that’s it. If you get the chance to go, go!

      It was good fun! Most of the other pictures feature my daughter and wife, so I can’t share those ones – no disrespect but I won’t email them to anyone! I need to go again and get more butter beer!

        No disrespect at all! That’s their privacy! You’re being a fantastic father & partner by protecting them.

        I really want to go!

Nearly 1/4 of the 2.06M virus death around the world have been in the United States and United Kingdom, under the stewardship of these two men. The hard right is a death cult.

A fallen warrior, together with a small band, must tear down everything his kind holds dear and reshape his people -- or see them utterly destroyed. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08DK71165 #scifi #action #adventure @darth_timon

Oh god. 1,820 UK COVID deaths announced: our highest since the pandemic began, in a country with one of the world's worst death tolls.

British Conservatism is a death cult

In accordance with an earlier link, apparently slapping a raw chicken 25,000 times will cook it. How does one apply the slaps? In one place or evenly? Can you over-slap the meat? #WednesdayMotivation
