Ciaran Hinds talks about his time on Hallows Part 2



Actor Ciaran Hinds, who will be playing Aberforth Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, recently did an interview with the Daily Record in which he first spoke about working with Dan, Rupert and Emma:

"It was surreal to be in a room with those three kids, all of whom know exactly what they're doing. And then there's you, who has been around for a long time, and they're the ones putting you at ease and making sure you know what you're doing on set.

"It was bizarre. But it was also really interesting to see things from that perspective. With every job, you're typically looking for the director to make sure you're doing the right thing but with Emma, Rupert and Daniel, that has become part of their psyche.

"They've been doing that job so long, they have such ease and an instant connection with it, and a real truthfulness."

And he then spoke briefly about his part in the film:

"My scene was a four-page exposition scene about Albus Dumbledore's childhood and how he's not all he said he was. It's that hole in the film that needs to be filled."

Time Turner Tuesday

Time-Turner Tuesday: Order of the Phoenix becomes fastest selling book ever on its release

Our second Time-Turner Tuesday post comes from a CBBC Newsround article (via the archives of Snitchseeker.com) from 23rd June 2003, 2 days after the release of the fifth book, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

The article breaks the news that the book has become the fastest selling on record.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is the fastest-selling book ever.

Five million copies of the book were sold in the US in the first day. One million were sold in Britain, more than twice as many as Prisoner of Azkaban sold in its first year!

It’s smashed records as fans all over the world race to get their hands on book five.

One US bookstore, a branch of Barnes and Noble, said the book was flying off their shelves at a rate of more than 80 per second!

‘Barmy’

It looks like OOTP is going to be 10 times more popular than the Goblet Of Fire, their spokesman said.

All around the UK, booksellers have described the mayhem surrounding OOTP as “barmy” and “manic”.

Bookshops everywhere opened their doors at midnight on Friday so the desperate fans could get hold of the book as soon as it went on sale.

You can read the whole thing right here. Come back next week to reminisce on another special something from ‘Potter’ history.
