I'm actually rather horrified with the CBBC, in a way. It's not like them to sensationalise things like this. It's highly unlikely she'll be cut and there's better examples they could've used like Marietta Edgecombe or Michael Corner.

Yeah Jo doesn't give anything away (except to Alan Rickman, *pokes him*) but she'll most likely lead them in the right direction, like she did with the house-elf thing.

I can understand the predicament though; they'd have to spend a segment of the film introducing her character and that would use up time, as would the character development, even if that isn't currently a strong point in the films. But like many others have said, her role is too big to be cut.

Although, I am extremely biased; she's my favourite character after Ron!
