The Mirror yesterday reported that new Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme parks, like the hugely successful one in Florida, are to be built in the UK and South Korea. They claim Warner Bros has registered "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" as a trademark in Britain, and that a Korean park is to open in 2014.
Unfortunately, these rumours have been dealt a blow as Romley Davis, a company that is working with WB to create the upcoming Harry Potter museum at Leavseden Studios, told Mugglenet that there are currently no plans for a UK park.
Additionally, Mugglenet revealed that there will be an official announcement on Thursday regarding the attraction being built at Leavesden, so stay tuned for that.

The Warner Bros. Studio Tour : The Making of Harry Potter studio tour is opening in March in London and we just learned from hypable.com that Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy, will be the voice of the digital guide you can purchase on the tour!
The Studio Tour’s official website describes the digital guide as this:
Our handheld audio-visual guides bring the Studio Tour to life in a completely new way. It contains fascinating facts about the sets, costumes and props, as well as newly produced interviews with filmmakers and never before seen behind-the-scenes footage. It is available in eight languages and can be pre-booked with your tickets. This is available to hire for just 4.95 pounds.
Currently we are unsure if Felton is the only actor on the Digital Guide or if others will join him.

Typograph is a standards compliant theme with a JQuery powered tabbed sidebar box and an ad under the first post on the index page. This theme has no images and is purely based on CSS elements and typography. Ideal for future customization. Typograph was styled "from the ground up" on a highly customized version of the Sandbox theme.
Designed by Morten Rand-Hendriksen - designer, information philosopher and author based out of Burnaby, BC.
You can change the contents of the tabbed box by editing the tabbedBox.php file located in the Typograph theme directory.
