| | | Deathly Hallows outdoors set caught on fire during battle sequence
It is being reported that whilst filming a battle sequence on the set of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows yesterday, an outdoors lot was caught on fire.
Local firefighters were called to the scene to extinguish the fire. Watch commander Tony Smith explained what occurred. Quote:
"I think they are filming some stunts for the last scene. There is a big battle scene involving a lot of pyrotechnics and explosions.
"There is a mocked up castle made of timber, steel and plastic - somehow it caught alight.
"By the time we got there the on-site fire crew had it pretty well under control - they did a good job.
"We just helped damp it down and inspected the area.
"I didn't see any cast - but there were about 100 crew, who were all evacuated to a marshalling area. They didn't seem too concerned.
"It's hard to say how much damage was caused, because some of it may have been planned as part of the filming.
"Perhaps they got much better footage than they expected."
Luckily no one was injured during the fire. |

I am so happy that everyone is alright!  That could have been a major disaster for those people.
But...everyone is ok and now we can think when we watch DH Part II, we can be like, "You see the castle on fire???!!! That's real!!"

Hah, much better footage than they expected.  That's pretty intense that the fires got out of control, though. Glad no one was injured!

I'm glad that no-one got hurt when this happened. Hopefully filming can go on as planned and not be too disrupted by the damage that was caused.
